Gentlemen Only

Mostly dry and warm, like cedar shavings or the inside of a wooden drawer. Underneath that, like woodsmoke or a blown-out match.

It opens on pink pepper, green mandarin and birch leaf, moves through vetiver, cedar and patchouli, and settles on incense and musk.

• pink pepper: light rosy pepper that sparkles rather than burns
• green mandarin: mandarin picked unripe: sharper, greener, less sweet

It lasts an average amount of time and sits close to the skin after the first hour.
