By the editors · 2 min readRose opens alone with a deep, slightly dark floral note. The single top creates an unusual structure — typically rose anchors a heart rather than a beginning.
Leather and plum carry the heart in an unusual pairing. The plum adds fruity-velvet sweetness that softens the leather's animalic dryness, while the leather brings smoky, tar-edged depth. Rose threads through, adding floral lift to the fruit-leather middle.
Cedar closes alone in the base with a dry, pencil-sharpener woodiness that contrasts the warmer heart. Overall character: a rose-leather-plum oriental with a dry cedar finish, suited to cool-weather evening wear and dressier casual occasions. Moderate complexity, decent projection through the heart, with the cedar finish stripping things back to a simpler close.
