Presence

Crisp apple and bright aldehydes snap open with bergamot and neroli, a sharp, effervescent opening that catches light like morning dew. Carnation and heliotrope emerge beneath, their spiced-floral warmth softening the citrus edge, while jasmine adds a whisper of skin-close sweetness. The base unfolds into oakmoss and vetiver, earthy and green, grounded further by sandalwood and patchouli that deepen into amber and musk—spice threading through it all, warm and slightly animalic. Cedar cuts clean through the warmth, leaving a dry, woody shadow that lingers on the skin.
