🌿 Fragrance Profile

• Top Notes: Citrus, Pepper
  

• Heart Notes: Iris, Orange Blossom
  

• Base Notes: Musk, Amber
  

Galloway is named after a breed of strong, elegant horses known for their endurance and beauty. The name reflects the fragrance’s character: sleek, fresh, and composed, yet with an underlying strength that gives it lasting appeal.

🍋 Opening – Fresh Citrus Spark

The fragrance opens with a vibrant citrus accord that’s sharp, bright, and instantly invigorating. The zesty freshness is complemented by a burst of pepper, adding a spicy edge that prevents the citrus from feeling too soft or fleeting. This pairing creates an energizing introduction that feels crisp and modern—perfect for starting your day with confidence.

The citrus is not overly sweet or synthetic; it smells natural and clean, like a freshly peeled lemon zest in the cool morning air. The pepper note brings just the right amount of heat, giving the fragrance a unique and mature character.

🌸 Heart – Delicate Florals with a Clean Edge

As the fragrance evolves, it introduces a subtle floral heart composed of iris and orange blossom. These floral notes are light and airy, never overly powdery or cloying. The iris brings an almost soapy elegance, while the orange blossom adds a clean sweetness that enhances the citrus notes from the opening.

Together, the heart notes lend Galloway a smooth and contemporary feel. It’s soft, polished, and incredibly wearable, making it ideal for office settings, casual days, or any occasion where you want to smell put-together and fresh without being too loud.

🪵 Base – Warm Musk and Gentle Amber

In the dry-down, musk and amber anchor the fragrance with warmth and sensuality. The musk is clean and smooth, adding a skin-like softness that lingers beautifully. Meanwhile, the amber brings a hint of golden warmth, subtly sweet and resinous, giving the scent its signature depth.

The base is where Galloway truly shines. It wraps around the wearer like a clean white shirt—tailored, refined, and comfortable. The balance of warm and cool notes ensures that the fragrance remains linear yet evolving, revealing different facets as the hours pass.
