By the editors · 2 min readRosewood and lavender open with a woody-aromatic sharpness softened by nutmeg's warm-spicy nuance and castoreum's animalic hint. Bulgarian rose and jasmine create a rich floral heart, peony adding a fresh green touch against civet's musky depth. Oakmoss and sandalwood provide a earthy-woody base, ambergris adding a saline warmth alongside vanilla's sweetness and tobacco's dry leaf. The composition is complex, evolving from animalic florals to a resinous, leathery dry-down. Sillage is strong initially, contracting to moderate over hours, with longevity extending through the day. Best for formal evenings in cool weather, where its depth feels appropriate.
