The note unfolds as an immediate burst of invigorating freshness, a dazzling olfactory cocktail that is both zesty and sweetly herbaceous. It begins with a sharp, almost piercing effervescence of crushed lime peel and juice, intensely tart and sparkling, quickly followed by the cool, almost frosty prickle of muddled spearmint and peppermint leaves. This initial vivacity gives way to a warming, slightly syrupy sweetness, reminiscent of raw cane sugar dissolving into a clear liquid, infused with the subtle, deep hum of aged white rum – a hint of fermented warmth, molasses, and a faint, sweet woodiness. The texture is liquid and airy, yet with a crystalline shimmer, delivering moderate projection initially before settling into a more intimate, refreshing skin scent. It is predominantly a top-to-heart note, dictating a bright, uplifting opening that gradually softens and warms on the skin.
