Agartha opens with a bright, sweet burst of mimosa and peach, layered with a surprising yet charming note of warm, sun-drenched hay that evokes a field drying in the late summer sun. The initial sweetness is delicate, not cloying—balanced by a whisper of cardamom and a soft herbal greenness that keeps the opening from feeling overly sugary. Over time, the hay fades into the background, giving way to a smooth, golden honey-tobacco blend that feels both intimate and softly radiant. The base settles on a restrained blend of agarwood, labdanum, and patchouli, supporting the scent without dominating it. This is a fragrance that transforms subtly and beautifully over several hours, evolving from a fresh, airy summertime field into a warm, quietly sensual drydown. The overall effect is refined and poetic—like a sunlit meadow captured in scent. The scent is most aligned with late summer and early autumn, though its longevity is moderate to long, making it ideal for daytime wear. Its soft sillage and intimate presence suit personal moments or evening strolls rather than bold statements. The fragrance has a natural, handmade quality, with an emphasis on fine ingredients and craftsmanship.
