Dust rises off a sun-cracked grove where orange trees meet broken stone, the fruit sweet, the earth beneath it mineral and struck like flint against steel. The opening is a burst of orange and grapefruit, tart and sunlit before it settles into the heart. There, pepper and pelargonium sharpen against the cool, smoky spark of flint, the scent's signature turn from citrus to stone. It lingers into a dry base of vetiver, cedar, patchouli, and warm benzoin, grounded and quietly smoldering for hours. Built for the man who moves between boardroom and backyard without changing his stride, a fragrance for spring afternoons, fall evenings, and the long winter days in between. At 30% oils in our Extrait pour, it opens bright and closes low, carrying an 8-10 hour trail from morning coffee to last call. Starts warm and near, easing into a comfortable 6-8 hour wear. Hand-poured in small batches in Richardson, TX as an Extrait de Parfum, 30% fragrance oils versus the 15-20% typical of an Eau de Parfum, so a little goes a long way. Reach for it on coffee runs, weekend brunches, and the kind of afternoons that don't need a reason. Made for our Spring selection.
