Pegasus
Heliotrope and bergamot open Pegasus with a powdery brightness that cumin anchors before it can float away. Bitter almond drives the heart alongside lavender, and the two together produce a sweetness that is dry rather than confectionery. Jasmine adds a quiet floral presence, and vanilla and sandalwood resolve the whole thing into a warm, clean finish that projects for hours without becoming aggressive.
Why We Carry This
Pegasus from 2011 set the template for a generation of almond-lavender masculines. The bitter almond and heliotrope combination is the reason the house built its reputation, and nothing since has made this release feel dated.
