Totem

Totem opens with bright spice—nutmeg and clove snap against citrus and ginger, while sea salt and melon add a mineral, almost briny coolness. Tropical fruit (pineapple, black currant, tangerine) lifts the opening into something juicy and fresh. As it settles, lavender and jasmine emerge, softening the edges with green floral depth, hawthorn adding a subtle astringency. The base arrives slow and grounded: oakmoss and vetiver create an earthy bed while cedar and ebony deepen into woody darkness, amber and musk warming what might otherwise feel austere. Iris threads through, slightly powdery. Cool herbal greens fade, leaving dry wood, moss, and skin-warm musk.
