Top notes are Green Mandarin, Bitter Orange, Mint, Lime and Eucalyptus; middle notes are Rosemary, Petitgrain, Neroli, Ginger and Galbanum; base notes are Cedar, Green Sap, Cashmere Wood and Musk. The fragrance features Green Mandarin, Rosemary and Cedar. "Kologne, Shield of protection takes a classic out to party. With luminous citrus notes throughout, Kologne, Shield of protection is a splash of freshness. The fragrance debuts with refreshing notes of green mandarin, bitter orange and mint leading into a heart of rosemary and neroli. A woodsy drydown is built around cedarwood, cashmeran and and a unique “sap” accord of green vegetal notes. Created as a shield of protection, it is a fragrance to spray around oneself like an aura of purity and vitality." -Brand website.
