Italy

Grapefruit and basil over heliotrope and fir balsam, with benzoin, sandalwood and amber beneath.

Grapefruit, bergamot and basil open with a juicy, herbal sparkle, and bay leaf adds a bitter leafy accent. Heliotrope and jasmine lead the heart, with juniper, fir balsam and geranium keeping it resinous. Benzoin, sandalwood and patchouli anchor the base, finished with amber and oakmoss. An ambery oil for men, made for spring and summer evenings and special occasions. Italy has no alcohol; it is pure ambery oil, sold by net weight.
