No 8

Galbanum and bright bergamot crack open with green snap, immediately cool and herbaceous. Neroli softens the edges while mastic brings a resinous, almost piney warmth to the heart—mint darts through like clarity, the incense deepening into something meditative and dry. As No 8 settles, amber and white musk create a soft, skin-close base that feels almost powdery, while cedar's woody dryness anchors the fade, leaving only warm resin and pale wood on skin.
