Black Xs L'Exces

Mostly bright and zesty, like fresh orange or lemon peel. Underneath that, dry and warm, like cedar shavings or the inside of a wooden drawer.

It opens on amalfi lemon and lavender, moves through cypriol oil or nagarmotha and sea notes, and settles on amber and patchouli.

• lemon: sharp, bright citrus. The most cutting of the citrus notes
• lavender: clean herbal flower, cooling and slightly soapy

It lasts well and carries into a room.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
