W.T. is a citrus-aromatic eau de parfum built on mint, which is rarer than it sounds — mint is usually a flourish in the top rather than the subject. It opens on spearmint, pink pepper and a mandarin aldehyde: the spearmint is cool and leafy rather than toothpaste-sharp, the pink pepper gives it a dry rosy heat, and the mandarin aldehyde adds a bright, almost fizzy citrus lift. The heart is where it turns serious: frankincense essence, jasmine absolute and geranium, so the green brightness gives way to resin and a faintly indolic floral warmth. The base is a moss accord with vetiver and olibanum — earthy, slightly smoky, dry. Expect six to eight hours, with the mint gone within the hour and the incense-and-moss core carrying the rest of the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe house frames it as visionary love, and the structure is genuinely unusual: a fragrance that opens like a garden in the morning and closes like a church in the afternoon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho made it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSweet Disruption.

If you wear incense fragrances and want one that is not solemn, or mint-forward scents and want one that does not vanish, W.T. answers both. The moss-and-vetiver base is what separates it from the many bright, short-lived aromatics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWithin D'ORSAY it is the daytime counterpart to the heavier Extraits. \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/dorsay\"\u003eJ'ai l'Air de Ce Que Je Suis.

Heat suits it: the mint reads as cooling rather than medicinal, and the moss base keeps it grounded where a lighter aromatic would evaporate. It works well for the office, everyday wear and daytime outings, and holds into a warm evening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo to three sprays.
