By the editors · 2 min readBlack pepper and basil open with a sharp aromatic freshness that carries herbal greenness and warm spice. Mimosa emerges quickly with its soft yellow floral character, tempering the initial spice with powdery sweetness. Sandalwood and labdanum form a warm woody-amber base that deepens over time, while patchouli adds earthy texture and agarwood contributes subtle oud-like dryness. The composition evolves from spicy-aromatic to a resinous woody dry-down with moderate projection that settles close to skin after several hours. Best for cool weather casual or evening wear with good longevity.
