Ithaka

Bergamot brightness cracks open like citrus-studded morning, then Ithaka softens into magnolia's creamy, almost soapy bloom layered with temple-like incense smoke. The heart lingers just long enough before the base emerges—Virginia cedar's dry, pencil-shaving warmth grounding the patchouli's earthy shadow, while labdanum and benzoin add honeyed resin depth. Cypriol oil weaves through with its dusty, root-like character, and incense returns, now darker and more contemplative, binding everything in amber-tinged smoke. Warm resin and weathered wood settle longest, the incense fading to a soft, dry haze on skin.
