The story

A vertical totem of mineral woods.

Purpose is built on frankincense, dry and peppery, opened by bergamot and pimento berry. Sand vetiver, sandalwood and papyrus give the heart a green, mineral quality, then saffron, suede and akigalawood close it. Serious and earthbound, and the base for the 50% Exceptional Extrait.

How it wears

Top notes greet you, the heart settles in over the first hour, and the base is what stays on skin at the end of the evening.
