By the editors · 2 min readLavender and bergamot open crisp and aromatic, the bergamot’s brief sparkle sharpening the herbal bite before it folds into warm skin. Cinnamon arrives early, its red-heat curling through supple leather that carries a faintly waxy, saddle-shop grain; together they mute the lavender and tilt the scent darker. Guaiac wood adds a smoldering, pencil-shaving smoke that bridges straight into the base. There patchouli’s earthy chocolate anchors the tobacco leaf, drying it to a matte, slightly honeyed barnyard dusk while musk swells quietly underneath, extending wear without adding sweetness. Projection sits at conversational arm’s length for six hours, then settles to a resinous, skin-close murmur ideal for cool autumn nights or an effortless-and-jeans date.
