By the editors · 2 min readVirginia cedar provides a dry, pencil-shaving woodiness that forms the immediate structural backbone. Violet introduces a powdery floral counterpoint, softening the cedar's sharp edges with a cosmetic quality. Leather and benzoin deepen the base, adding a supple, slightly animalic texture alongside amber's resinous warmth. Styrax contributes a balsamic nuance that enhances the leather-amber accord without becoming overly sweet. Projection starts moderate but recedes to a skin-scent within three hours, emphasizing its intimate character. Wear time reaches six hours, making it suitable for casual and evening wear in cool weather.
