Composed in 2025 by Christian Petrovich, the Greek-inspired house's founder and the nose behind Triumph of Bacchus and Birth of Venus, it opens on bergamot and mandarin with a cardamom-and-lavender lift, then settles into green tea, geranium and orange blossom over salted woods. Reviewers single out the tea-and-musk drydown and repeatedly call it the most versatile composition Petrovich has released — a striking turn for a house better known for its heavier gourmands.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eHow It Differs From Argos Triumph of Bacchus\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eTriumph of Bacchus:\u003c\/strong\u003e boozy sweet tobacco, rum and vanilla — a dense, warm night-time scent that wants cold weather.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eNeptune's Trident:\u003c\/strong\u003e fresh, green and airy — tea, citrus and salted woods built for daylight and heat.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSame nose, opposite use case:\u003c\/strong\u003e they are not variations on a theme.
