A Study in Water

Lime and bergamot crack open with the mineral coolness of water notes, a crisp green threshold sharpened by green apple and the soft white bell of lily-of-the-valley. The heart unfolds into green leaves and orange blossom—still luminous, still wet—before mahogany and guaiac wood emerge beneath, their woody warmth grounded by musk and sandalwood. Water notes thread through the entire arc, sustaining that aquatic clarity even as the base settles into dry, resinous wood and creamy skin musk.
