This fresh citrus spark blends seamlessly with ambrette and clary sage, creating a green, aromatic clarity that feels expansive and contemplative. As the fragrance develops, layers of incense, vulcain, and pink incense rise gently, adding a mineral, smoky depth that feels spiritual rather than heavy.
