By the editors · 2 min readA spiced, resinous take on the CH framework. Violet leaf and a brief flash of orange open green-citrus, sharper than the typical CH fougère, before violet itself blooms cool and powdery.
The heart turns smoky-warm: cinnamon spice, iris pulled toward suede, the leather reading dry rather than animalic. More incense-tea than barber-shop.
The drydown anchors on frankincense and patchouli, vanilla rounding the smoke without sweetening it. Earthy, churchy, comfortable in cold weather — a flanker pitched at someone who finds the parent CH too floral-bright.
