Time To Target

Time To Target is fundamentally a fruity, woody fragrance. It opens with bright exotic fruits and lavender before settling into an earthy heart of galbanum and patchouli. The dry-down relies heavily on a mossy, leathery base that gives the composition a grounded, professional feel during office hours.

The opening is a burst of vibrant fruit and bergamot citrus. Within an hour, this energy shifts into a much more reserved, dry-woody phase. The cedar and patchouli notes take over, and the initial fruity sweetness fades, leaving a sophisticated, leather-forward scent profile that lingers close to the skin.

Most users report moderate longevity, typically lasting around six to eight hours on standard skin types. It performs best in moderate climates where the oakmoss note has room to breathe. If you have dry skin, applying a fragrance-free lotion before spraying will help extend its life throughout your workday.

The sillage is generally moderate. It projects well within arm's length for the first three hours, making it appropriate for professional settings or smaller gatherings. After that, it settles into a closer, more intimate scent bubble, ensuring you do not overwhelm those sharing a small meeting room with you.

Spring is arguably the best season for this scent. The aromatic lavender and light citrus top notes thrive in mild, damp air. While it has enough structure for cooler autumn days, the earthy patchouli might feel slightly out of place in the high heat of a humid mid-summer afternoon.

Yes, it is highly suitable for the office. The combination of cedar and leather feels professional and composed. Because it lacks aggressive sweetness or heavy spice, it remains respectful of shared workspace boundaries. It signals a sense of calm focus rather than trying to grab attention in a crowded hallway.

While marketed as unisex, it leans masculine in its dry-down due to the leather, cedar, and oakmoss profile. However, the initial exotic fruit and lavender opening is perfectly balanced, making it a great choice for women who enjoy earthy, non-floral profiles that offer a crisp, sharp alternative to traditional feminine scents.

It makes a reliable signature scent for someone who prefers a clean, woody-aromatic style. It is consistent and not overly polarizing, meaning it won't alienate those around you. If you enjoy scents that feel polished and mature without being overly formal, this works well for daily wear across many settings.

You can successfully layer it with lighter citrus or clean-musk scents if you want to extend the duration of the fruity opening notes. It provides a solid, earthy foundation, so avoid layering it with very heavy gourmand fragrances as the leather and patchouli might clash with overly sugary accords.

Because the leather and oakmoss notes react differently based on personal body chemistry, you should wear a sample for at least one full day. Test it in both a cool morning environment and a warmer afternoon to see how the patchouli and galbanum heart develops before committing to a full bottle.
