By the editors · 2 min readRaspberry opens sharply, quite tart rather than jammy, giving the opening an almost astringent fruit quality. It reads more acidic than sweet.
Rose enters the heart but stays restrained, providing shape without softness. The combination of tart berry and spare rose is unusual — less romantic than structural, more about contrast than harmony. There is a slightly cold quality to this phase.
Leather dominates the base, direct and unapologetic. Birch adds a smoky, slightly tarry edge that pushes the leather toward the harsher end of the spectrum. Cedar provides some dryness to balance. The overall composition is a leather study with fruit and rose used as contrast, not decoration.
