By the editors · 2 min readGinger snaps open hot and dry, its citrusy bite immediately dusted by saffron’s leathery pollen and cardamom’s cool, lemony crunch. Myrrh slides in within minutes, pouring a bittersweet, liquorish resin that quiets the spices blaze and bridges to a creamy, peanut-sand sandalwood. Frankincense and incense double the smoke, turning the heart church-cool while civet growls underneath, adding a slightly urinous musk that keeps the sweet wood from going soft. Dry-down stays close to skin: sandalwood’s milked warmth, incense ash and the faint animalic purr of civet last six hours, projecting a quiet resinous haze rather than a trail. Cool evenings, smart casual attire, fall through winter.
