In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Somens Onice opens with a crisp burst of orange, crushed mint, and black pepper. As the sharp citrus cools on skin, soft cashmere wood and resinous elemi build a clean, aromatic core. A steady base of cedar and white musk keeps the scent grounded through warm spring afternoons and office hours.

Police Passion opens with a sharp burst of lemon and cooling mint that quiet down quickly on skin. Lavender steps in during the middle hour, softening the citrus edges before creamy sandalwood and cashmere wood take over the base. It wears as a clean, light aromatic fougere suitable for casual spring mornings.
