Apple, lemon, bergamot and star anise mark the top of Legend Cologne from Ariaz, four materials layering into a bright, faintly licorice tinged citrus opening. Plum, orange blossom and cardamom deepen the heart into something fruity and warmly spiced. Musk, amber, driftwood and oakmoss close the foundation dry, earthy and richly woody. Star anise is a distinctive top note choice, giving the citrus opening a sweetness closer to licorice than a typical spice would allow. Legend Cologne is a citrus fruity Extrait de Parfum from Ariaz, suited to everyday wear and the office. Ariaz built ambition into the top note alone here.
