Citrus

Imagine biting into a sun-warmed mandarin fresh from a tree—that initial burst of bright, juicy sweetness mixed with a slightly green, almost grassy undertone. Italian green mandarin is fresher and more herbaceous than typical mandarin notes, with a subtle leafy quality reminiscent of crushed citrus leaves. It's simultaneously zesty and gently creamy, less sharp than lemon but more verdant than sweet orange. Think of the scent of an Italian orchard at dawn: citrus-forward, but with that cool green whisper that speaks of morning moisture and unripe fruit clinging to branches.

Woody

Musk is the scent of warmth itself—imagine the gentle heat radiating from skin after exercise, mingled with soft suede and a whisper of vanilla. It's deeply intimate rather than floral or sharp; think of wrapping yourself in a cashmere blanket warmed by the sun, with a faint animalic undertone that's almost imperceptible. Pure musk has a powdery, almost imperceptible sweetness, like the inside of a lover's wrist or the comfort of well-loved fabric. It doesn't announce itself boldly; instead, it envelops and lingers on your skin like a second layer.
