By the editors · 2 min readLavender and cardamom open together — the lavender is herbal and dry, while cardamom adds a warm, faintly medicinal bite. Bergamot keeps the entry from feeling heavy, but the opening leans decidedly aromatic rather than fresh.
The heart introduces iris and patchouli over leather and rose, building a dense, slightly smoky middle. Cinnamon and tobacco begin to surface here, edging the composition toward something dry and resinous. The leather is not sharp; it blends into the spice rather than dominating.
The drydown is sandalwood and cedarwood with tobacco sitting prominently on top. Warm, spiced, and deliberately old-fashioned in structure — a textbook aromatic fougère-adjacent composition that wears close to skin.
