Inspired by Diptyque Tempo, Temporal is patchouli reimagined as something airy, elegant, and quietly addictive—more clean rhythm than heavy sweetness. It wears like calm confidence: fresh at the first breath, aromatic and green at the core, then settling into a woody, earthy trail that feels refined and modern.

It opens with a bright, breezy lift of bergamot, crisp and luminous, like morning air before the city fully wakes. Almost immediately, pink pepper flickers over the citrus—sparkling and lightly spicy—adding a clean jolt of energy that feels tailored rather than loud. The effect is inviting and polished, like stepping into a room where everything is perfectly placed.

As the opening softens, the heart becomes the signature. Clary sage brings a cool, herbal clarity—aromatic, slightly musky, and effortlessly sophisticated—while mate adds a dry, tea-like greenness that feels smooth and composed, with a subtle smoky edge. Through it all, violet leaf threads a distinctive green “snap”: watery, ozonic, and modern, like crisp air moving through open windows. It gives Temporal that lifted, spacious feeling—fresh without being sporty, clean without being soapy.

Then patchouli arrives—not as darkness, but as depth. Patchouli here feels woody and earthy, polished and controlled, like well-worn wood warmed by sun rather than a heavy syrup. It anchors the fragrance with a soft balsamic richness that lingers close to the skin, creating a trail that’s quietly magnetic: grounded, elegant, and unmistakably niche.

Temporal is the scent of presence without pressure—fresh spice and citrus at first impression, aromatic greens in the middle, and a refined patchouli-wood finish that stays with you like a steady heartbeat. Perfect for everyday wear when you want to feel composed, interesting, and remembered—without ever raising your voice.
