By the editors · 2 min readWithout a defined top, the fragrance opens directly into its dense character — cinnamon's warm-sweet spice meets saffron's leathery iodine, immediately announcing a Middle Eastern oriental direction.
The heart deepens with leather and amber working together: amber's resinous warmth, leather's smooth animalic glow, saffron threading both. Vanilla begins to emerge underneath, but it's a dense vanilla — closer to balsamic than confectionery — wrapping the leather rather than dessertifying it.
The drydown reads smoky and dim, with a tobacco shadow even when not explicitly named, the cinnamon persisting throughout. Soft-spicy warmth dominates the wear. Overall the character is a vanilla-leather-amber composition with serious depth, cool-weather and evening-leaning, slow-developing, suited to those who want orientals dark rather than candied.
