By the editors · 2 min readRaspberry and saffron open with a jammy brightness that quickly darkens when rose folds in, adding a velvet floral weight. Birch enters early, lending a dry-leather aspect that steers the fruit away from confection, while incense and benzoin build a smoky amber spine. The agarwood note dominates the base, projecting medicinal oud tar over warm amber resin, creating a leathery-smoky finish that lingers eight hours. Projection stays arm-length for four hours before settling to skin, making it suited for cool evenings or formal dinners where smoke and wood read refined rather than rugged.
