Himalaya
calabrian bergamot · grapefruit · sicilian lemon
Himalaya opens on a cool burst of citrus, Calabrian bergamot, grapefruit and Sicilian lemon, before a heart of sandalwood that feels soft and smooth. Its base of musk, ambergris and cedar leaves a woody, powdery trail. Wear it in spring or summer, when the air warms and the citrus still feels bright on your skin.
