By the editors · 2 min readDangerous Complicity opens with ginger's live-wire brightness, sharp enough to make you blink, softened only slightly by a whisper of rum sweetness. This is the house at its most provocative—taking osmanthus, that shy flower often described as apricot-leather, and pushing it into overdrive with coconut and sandalwood until it reads almost edible, nearly indecent.
As it settles, the composition becomes warmer and more intimate, the spice mellowing into a creamy, skin-close haze. There's something deliberately ambiguous here, hovering between confection and sensuality without committing fully to either.
The name promises scandal, but the fragrance itself is more playful than transgressive. It suits someone who enjoys wearing perfume as slight mischief—warm weather, bare skin, an inside joke with yourself.
