The delightful combination of litsea cubeba and bergamot remains the enchanting main fragrance. Unlike pairing with sweet orange, the scent of bergamot extends into the middle notes, offering a unique therapeutic sweetness with ester notes. The cypress balances out any cloying sensations, and the resinous aroma of copaibaadds the final touch to the base notes, creating a perfect foundation for both the front and middle notes. The sweet and woody Atlas Cedarwood in the aftertaste is the crucial final step on this olfactory journey, adding a touch of sweetness and forest vibes.
Bergamot takes center stage, and those who appreciate citrus notes usually nod in agreement upon the first whiff. Its acceptance among individuals, including men, is relatively high, making it a safe and pleasing choice for gifting. The gentle touch of Atlas Cedarwood in the aftertaste softens the overall aroma, providing a comfortable sensation reminiscent of a gentle breeze caressing the skin, not just during "summer" but also during the slow warmth of other seasons.
