By the editors · 2 min readBlack pepper and neroli create a sharp, aromatic opening that is both spicy and slightly floral, setting an energetic tone. Cinnamon and leather form a warm, rugged heart, complemented by ylang-ylang and rose which add a soft floral sweetness to the spiciness. Tonka bean, sandalwood, ambergris, and vanilla blend into a sweet, creamy, and slightly animalic base that feels rich and long-lasting. The scent evolves significantly, from spicy-bright to floral-leathery to sweet-woody over several hours. Projection is strong initially, settling to an intimate trail, ideal for evening or formal events in cooler seasons.
