By the editors · 2 min readLemon and bergamot open brightly and cleanly before receding quickly. Jasmine, ylang-ylang, and rose fill the heart — a warm, multi-faceted floral combination. Ylang-ylang brings its banana-edged, creamy floral depth while rose and jasmine provide classical floral richness.
Leather and patchouli anchor the base with dark, earthy depth. Amber adds warmth, softening the leather's animalic edge. The combination of ylang-ylang-rose over leather and patchouli creates a characteristically rich, slightly dusky quality.
This is a dark floral leaning on leather and earthy patchouli — the floral heart is full and warm, but the base tilts the composition toward smoky depth. Suited to cooler months and evening occasions where something rich and a little untamed is appropriate.
