By the editors · 2 min readPatchouli, cedar, and rose open with a resinous, woody-rosy character that feels both earthy and slightly floral. Incense and guaiac wood emerge in the heart, adding a smoky, meditative quality that deepens the fragrance’s solemn tone. Sandalwood provides a creamy, smooth undertone that balances the drier woods and smokier elements present earlier. The base rests on a clean musk that doesn’t overpower but instead amplifies the fragrance’s skin-hugging nature. This is a linear composition with little evolution, maintaining its woody-incense character from start to finish. Sillage is intimate and longevity is strong, lasting over ten hours and fitting for fall or winter evenings.
