L'Apollon

L'Apollon opens with bright bergamot and grapefruit—a sharp, almost bitter citrus that arrests attention. The heart shifts into spiced warmth: pink pepper's floral bite mingles with pimento's deeper heat, anchored by saffron's honeyed earthiness. Vetiver and leather emerge in the base, woody and slightly animalic, while sandalwood and labdanum deepen into a resinous, amber-tinged finish. The spices linger longest, threading through the entire arc like heat sustained beneath cool skin.
