By the editors · 2 min readBlack pepper and bergamot open dry and sparkling — the pepper biting and slightly woody, the bergamot quickly faded. It's a short, sharp opening that hands off fast.
Violet leaf and tobacco form the heart. The violet leaf is green and sappy, almost cucumber-cool; the tobacco sweet and pipe-leaning, slightly resinous. The pairing is the signature — a green-tobacco that reads both fresh and warm at once.
Oakmoss, leather, and patchouli settle the base. Oakmoss dry and earthy, leather suede-like rather than oily, patchouli dark and damp. Overall character: a green-tobacco-leather over an earthy-mossy floor — masculine-leaning, slightly retro in its chypre architecture. Moderate projection, holds for hours, long earthy close that sits close to skin.
