Scent Story
Essential opens with bright citrus—bergamot and tangerine—with a green, slightly vegetal kick from tomato leaf and cassia. The heart introduces a spicy floral dimension with rose and black pepper adding contrast. It settles into a base of creamy sandalwood, earthy patchouli, and warm woody accords, leaving a clean, skin-friendly trail.

Wearability & Lifestyle
Perfect for daytime wear—office, casual outings, weekend activities—in spring and summer. It’s sporty but not loud, clean but not bland. Great paired with polo shirts, light linen, or relaxed casual wear when you want to smell fresh but effortlessly put-together.
