The "Deep Dive"

The Dry-Down

Over time, the fragrance settles into a chypre base accentuated by oakmoss and musk, echoing a refined masculine essence with a subtle nod to Hacivat. It evolves into a softer, balanced aroma that mingles greenness and sweetness beautifully in the dry down, perfect for those who appreciate a sophisticated, cultured scent.
