Galangal

The opening burst of green, almost peppery galangal is so much more complex than your typical ginger note—it stays sharp and interesting on my skin for hours. Really lifted my mood the first time I wore it out to brunch.

I've worn a lot of ginger-forward scents that go sharp and soapy on my skin, but this one stays warm and rooty for hours. It's my first fragrance from this house and I get why people call the compositions artistic.

I was expecting something sharp and medicinal, but this settles into a warm, almost gingery spice on my skin within twenty minutes. It's artistic without being difficult to wear, which is rare for a house this creative.
