The Story
Iperborea is a green, aromatic fougère that captures the crisp air of northern lands. It opens with a burst of mint and artemisia, then settles into a floral-herbal heart of lavender and clary sage. The base is a warm, earthy blend of oakmoss, vetiver, and musk. It's a timeless, sophisticated scent that feels both fresh and grounded.
