Helix

Helix from Carner Barcelona, composed by Jordi Fernández in 2024, is a fresh woody fragrance with a marine, citrus and floral side. Everyone who describes it calls it woody, about half notice freshness, flowers and citrus, and a minority find it green and musky.

Bergamot, including Calabrian bergamot, opens it with a bright, slightly bitter citrus sparkle, while sea water and sea notes add a cool, salty breeze. Clary sage brings an herbal, slightly musky freshness. In the heart, lily of the valley adds a dewy, clean floral note, orange blossom a honeyed softness and peach a gentle, velvety fruitiness. The base is dry and woody, with cedar, including Virginia cedar, giving a pencil-like crispness, vetiver, notably Haitian vetiver, a grassy, smoky depth, and musk a clean finish.

It is worn by anyone and suits people who want a fresh, modern woody scent with a coastal feel. The profile points to spring and summer, daytime, the office and travel. Those who like marine woods with a clean vetiver base should find it versatile.
