By the editors · 2 min readFrankincense opens with a church-incense smokiness that is immediately spiced by pink pepper's berry-like heat and cardamom's aromatic green freshness. Leather and oud form a bold, animalic heart, their rugged and smoky character contrasted by the powdery, cosmetic coolness of iris and the metallic green of violet leaf. Sandalwood and vanilla soften the dry-down with a creamy, woody sweetness, while cypriol adds an earthy, leathery nuance and amber provides a warm resinous glow. The scent evolves significantly from a smoky-spicy opening to a complex, leathery-powdery base, projecting strongly for three hours before becoming more intimate. Best for formal evening wear in cold weather, it boasts impressive longevity, lasting well over twelve hours on skin.
