No 9

No 9 opens with warm nutmeg and bright bergamot sharpened by sage's herbaceous edge—grounding and almost medicinal. Jasmine and violet leaf bloom in the middle, softening the spice into something floral and green, with a whisper of skin-like warmth. As it settles, vetiver's earthy grip anchors everything, while musk and moss deepen the composition into a quietly animalic base threaded with cedar's dry wood. The result feels grounded yet luminous, neither harsh nor soft.
