Viking Beirut

Viking Beirut is a green, woody citrus from Bharara, released in 2024 and worn by anyone. Green, woody and citrus are the words everyone uses; about half also call it fresh, floral or aromatic, so expect brightness and bitterness rather than sweetness.

Lemon and bergamot open it with a sharp, clean citrus, and galbanum immediately pushes it greener, that intensely bitter, snapped-stem note that smells like crushed leaves. An ozonic touch adds a cool, airy freshness, while sage and geranium bring a herbal, slightly peppery, slightly rosy middle. The base is dry and classic: vetiver gives a smoky, rooty wood, oakmoss a damp, forest-floor depth, and tonka bean a small amount of soft, hay-like warmth so it does not end too austere.

It is a crisp daytime scent for spring and summer, or for anyone who finds most fresh fragrances too sweet, and it suits people who like green, mossy, slightly old-fashioned freshness.
