It opens with a sharp, vibrant blend of Thai basil and pepper, giving it a crisp, slightly green and spicy freshness. As it develops, akigalawood becomes the focus—woody, slightly peppery, and subtly ambery—creating a textured, modern woodiness. A clean, mineral-like freshness from hedione adds lift, while vetiver and patchouli bring an earthy depth. The drydown is smooth, woody, and slightly musky with a dry, contemporary finish.
