Greenery

Lemon zest leads the composition, bright and assertive from the opening. Blackcurrant enters as a counterweight, tart and almost wine-like, darker than the name suggests. The black amber base holds the fragrance close, keeping the drydown intimate rather than projecting outward. Cedar does the quiet work underneath, adding texture that keeps the whole composition from reading as a single note. The interplay between these elements creates something that feels both bold and grounded.

The evolution

The opening is all lemon, a bright citrus explosion that announces itself without apology. The tartness is immediate and unfiltered. As the fragrance develops, blackcurrant threads through, cutting the sharp edges with something rounder and more complex. The citrus doesn't disappear entirely, it evolves, becoming part of the fruit rather than dominating it. The drydown brings black amber warming against skin, with cedarwood asserting itself quietly beneath. On fabric, the cedar lingers long after the initial brightness fades, a faint woody warmth that catches you by surprise. What remains is the cedar, grounded and persistent, the note that defines how Greenery ends.
