First Snow is a minimalist, woodsy-spicy scent that evokes a quiet winter forest—crisp, smoky, and softly peppery. It opens with a sharp, clean burst of black pepper and juniper, followed by a woody, balsamic base reminiscent of Bushman’s candle, which tempers the intensity into something warm and textured. The vanilla note blends gently with guaiac wood and birch, creating a subtly sweet yet not gourmand character. Some describe a faint citronella or smoky incense effect, though citrus is barely noticeable. The fragrance is unisex, with minimal sillage and moderate longevity—most find it lasts around four to five hours, though it lingers especially on clothing. It feels intimate and personal, more like a breath of forest air than a statement scent. The scent strikes a balance between freshness and depth, offering a uniquely atmospheric experience that suits casual wear, close quarters, or colder seasons.
