By the editors · 2 min readCumin and cardamom open the composition — cumin with its distinctive warm, savory-body quality, cardamom with a clean aromatic spice. The pairing is unusual and immediately distinctive, giving this fragrance an identifiable signature before the middle notes arrive.
Violet leaf enters the heart with a green, slightly aquatic, vegetal quality — entirely different in character from violet flower. It provides a fresh counterpoint to the warm opening spices, creating an interesting contrast.
White musk closes the fragrance minimally. This is a spare, conceptual fragrance that relies on the tension between warm body-spice and cool green leaf. The simplicity is intentional — this reads as a minimalist study in contrast. Not for every occasion, but memorable in its focus.
