In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Lyre Intense is a rose-led woody aromatic with warm spice, powdery iris, soft florals and a musky sandalwood base.

Symphony by Sensor I Am balances bright, spicy cardamom against a damp, earthy base of vetiver and oakmoss. Launched in 2022, this unisex scent eschews traditional sweet florals in favor of a rugged, green structure. It is designed for those who appreciate dry, forest-like aromas during cool, rainy autumn days.
