Simple no nonsense fresh woody fragrance
Imagine cutting wood on a crisp Sunday morning while sipping some lemon tea and taking a quick break and looking to look out over the sunrise, that’s this fragrance.
This fragrance in particular has a amazing effervescent bergamot opening, like sparkling bergamot, accompanied by some young woods and a believe just a hint of lavender, with not too generous helping of oakmoss with some vetiver to help woody things out. I wouldn’t call it a fougere for lack of a decent amount of lavender or coumarin, but it gives a very fougere like feel. If all those things turn you on then this is a blind buy.
The oakmoss is really well done, not too dank or overbearing, just a nice light smooth oakmoss.
On clothes you’ll get a nice woody rindy oakmoss for hours, though projection still dies after a hour half.
Projection is great, longevity is very decent for a freshie, price was a bit up there but worth it to me at least.
This is one of the standouts for me from the house of ATH, not going for mass appeal, just looking to make a small audience very happy.
I feel as if we are going to seek less artisanal niche approaches to his new fragrances in the furure, as he’s trying to hit a wider demographic.
This is a summer spring maybe fall fragrance, signature worthy, office safe, sweaty day safe.
My signature fragrance, Sadly it’s been discontinued. Lucky I stocked up on 5 bottle while it was on sale.
