✦Benefits
Oil Balance · balance water and oil
A “balance guide” for oily skin. It helps ease sebum, shine on the T-zone and the look of large pores, so skin feels fresh and clear again.
Emotional Balance · ease the mood
Its constituents are close to lavender, but the scent is more woody. When mood is low or thoughts are scattered, it offers gentle comfort: relaxed, without drowsiness.
Fresh Scent · a fresh body scent
A natural “scent balancer.” Its clean, bitter-then-sweet leaf note tempers sweat and other odors and leaves a fresh, natural body scent.

Scalp Fresh · less oil on the scalp

A classic sleep scent for men. No sweet floral weight, only the steadiness of green leaves, to find inner quiet in the noise.
