What you’ll learn from this formula
How a scent called green is built on wood
a thin leafy edge between a fresh top and a broad woody floor
Main skill
The power of traces
People remember this kind of scent as green, like cut leaves and violet leaves after rain, yet the whole green block is only about one fifteenth of this formula, and its sharpest leafy edge comes from the perfumer’s secret, used at about one three-thousandth. The largest part of the formula is not green at all: a dry floor of wood and moss makes up about a third, and a bright layer of citrus and aromatic herbs almost as much. The green works because it sits between them, lifted by the fresh top and set against the calm wood. That is the lesson: a scent can take its name from a thin edge, as long as the edge has the right ground to stand on.
Supporting skill
Lifting the opening
How the opening stays clean rather than sweet: a single crisp, freshly cut material makes up about a tenth of the formula on its own, and together with the herbs and citrus peels it builds a sharp, airy first breath. Because that first breath is clean rather than juicy, the green that follows reads as leaves in cool air, not as fruit.
Supporting skill
Tying off the trail
How the wood stays smooth and quiet: two dry, transparent woody materials make up about seven tenths of the woody block, so the floor feels like polished wood rather than a dark forest. A soft floral layer of about a sixth, where violet-like and iris-like materials give a fine powder, rounds it off, and a band of amber and musk of about a seventh keeps the whole shape close to the skin for a long time.
