Lapis Lazuli

Cypress and wormwood open with a dry, herbal snap—green and austere—before clove's warm spice and rose's papery depth arrive. The heart softens into a grainy wheat sweetness undercut by thyme's mineral edge and iris's powdered iris root, creating an almost textile quality. As the composition settles, amber glows beneath vetiver's earthen grip, while cedar and elemi add resinous structure. Musk rounds the base into skin-warm softness, tolu balsam lending a subtle vanilla-tobacco sweetness that lingers with dry vetiver and fading wood.
