By the editors · 2 min readJasmine and ylang-ylang open with a narcotic floral intensity layered over tobacco's dry hay-like aroma. Incense and myrrh rise quickly, adding a smoky resinous depth that darkens the floral heart. Labdanum and amber contribute a warm balsamic sweetness that melds with the tobacco-incense accord. Oakmoss and vetiver in the base provide an earthy mossy foundation with ambergris's animalic shimmer. The scent evolves from floral-tobacco to a complex smoky ambery dry-down over 8+ hours. It projects strongly for 10+ hours, suited to cold weather and formal evening wear.
