By the editors · 2 min readJasmine and ylang-ylang surge up first, heady and tropical, with black currant adding a tart green-purple jolt that prevents the flowers from going syrupy. The opening is loud and humid.
Without a stated heart, the composition shifts straight toward the base, where frankincense and olibanum drift smoke through the petals while vetiver pulls earth up from below. The flowers darken rather than disappear.
Sandalwood, amber, vanilla and patchouli settle in as a thick resinous bed, warm and slightly sticky. Overall character is dramatic and incense-laden, a white-floral oriental for cooler evenings with strong projection and a long, smoky-sweet drydown that clings to fabric and skin alike.
