Paragon

Mostly sweet resinous warmth, soft and slightly powdery. Underneath that, cool and green, like herbs crushed between your fingers.

It opens on bergamot, buchu or agathosma and lemon, moves through artemisia, lavender and oud, and settles on amber, benzoin and herbal notes.

• bergamot: bright citrus peel, sharper and greener than orange. The note that makes Earl Grey tea smell the way it does
• lemon: sharp, bright citrus. The most cutting of the citrus notes

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

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