The "Deep Dive"

The Dry-Down

The dry down of Green Irish Tweed is predominantly woody and powdery, with distinct notes of sandalwood and iris taking center stage, providing a creamy yet soft floral backdrop. Violet leaf and ambergris offer subtler nuances, maintaining some of the freshness found initially. The ozonic quality recedes while sandalwood strengthens with warm, smooth qualities. There is a significant shift from the vibrant green opening, offering a mature complexity that softly melds with one's skin, creating an elegant and refined aura that lingers delicately.

Who should wear it?

Green Irish Tweed is ideal for the classic-minded gentleman who appreciates timeless elegance. Perfect for those who are drawn to fresh, green scents that evoke sophistication and refinement. Whether for work or leisure, it suits those who value tradition but are not confined by it, enjoying an aura of understated luxury.
