By the editors · 2 min readBergamot offers a brief citrus brightness that quickly gives way to leather and labdanum, introducing a rugged resinous and slightly animalic heart. Tobacco adds a dry smoky sweetness that intertwines with the leather, creating a rich and complex mid-section with a warm aromatic quality. Guaiac wood and vetiver provide a dry woody base with earthy undertones, while amber and cedar add warmth and structure, and patchouli contributes an earthy depth. Castoreum enhances the animalic leather accord, resulting in a bold and long-lasting scent that evolves from citrus to leathery smoky over six to eight hours. Projection is strong initially but settles to a moderate sillage, suited for fall and winter evenings or formal occasions.
