by Ormonde Jayne
Evernia by Ormonde Jayne is a refined, woody-mossy fragrance with a distinctively sophisticated and elegant character. It opens with a bright, slightly salty burst of bergamot and cardamom, layered over earthy oakmoss and a subtle floral-musky depth. The core of the scent rests on a bold, realistic oakmoss accords paired with orris root, black currant, and creamed pine and sandalwood notes. The drydown is smooth, soft, and slightly powdery, with a subtle musk that lingers with quiet persistence. It embodies a restrained, modern elegance — more academic than sensual — with a cool, refined demeanor that suits professional environments. While not overwhelmingly strong or projective, it holds well throughout the day, especially in warmer conditions where the moss and floral notes bloom and soften into a caramelized, earthy richness.
