Jasmine, plum and bergamot open over a plush, slightly indolic background, with the plum reading as the sweet-fruit anchor and the citrus providing only a brief sparkle before warmth settles in.

By the editors · 2 min readJasmine, plum and bergamot open over a plush, slightly indolic background, with the plum reading as the sweet-fruit anchor and the citrus providing only a brief sparkle before warmth settles in.
Cinnamon and patchouli push the heart into a warm-spicy register, while peach, lily of the valley and rose add fruity-floral lift. The middle is busy but cohesive — clearly built on the Opium template, with red spice and stone fruit weaving through florals.
Incense, coconut, vetiver, myrrh, labdanum, benzoin, amber, vanilla, cedar, opoponax, castoreum and musk make up the cavernous base. Resins dominate, castoreum gives an animal edge, and coconut sweetens. The arc is a dense oriental-balsamic homage with serious heft.
