By the editors · 2 min readThe opening strikes with crisp mint cut through by warm nutmeg—an unexpected cold-hot contrast that feels both medicinal and grounding. There's an herbal clarity here, almost ascetic, that sets the tone for what follows.
As it settles, vetiver and saffron create a dusty, leathered earthiness while iris adds a soft, powdery coolness that keeps the composition from turning heavy. The incense burns quietly beneath, never dominating but lending a dry, ceremonial quality to the leather. This isn't biker jacket leather—it's something more abstract, closer to worn book bindings or temple interiors.
The overall effect is austere and contemplative, with a slight medicinal edge that feels intentionally anti-seductive. It suits those drawn to fragrance as conceptual statement rather than crowd-pleaser, offering a kind of monastic modernism that reads equally at home in galleries or rain-soaked city streets.
