Lime Basil & Mandarin
A bright citrus in which lime is cut by peppery basil and aromatic thyme. Fresh and short-lived, it is the kind of scent you reapply at midday.
Herbal Aquatica
Mint, sage and bergamot make the opening bracing rather than sweet. Tea and papyrus dry the heart out, and only then do caramel, amber and sandalwood warm it from below.
