It opens fresh and spicy with spearmint, cardamom, lemon and grapefruit, while birch tar adds a smoky, faintly leathery edge to that brightness. At the heart, Haitian vetiver, driftwood, pine and clove push the scent in a green, woody direction. The base of patchouli, cedarwood and vetiver is earthy and dry, and tonka bean with benzoin softens it a little. The overall impression is a fresh, green and slightly synthetic vetiver.
