By the editors · 2 min readYuzu and bergamot provide a sharp citrus opening that is immediately spiced by black pepper and star anise. The heart introduces a nutty hazelnut accord paired with resinous myrrh, adding a sweet-balsamic depth to the composition. Leather and vetiver form a dry, earthy base that grounds the fragrance, while patchouli contributes an additional earthy-woody texture. Musk smooths the transition, ensuring the leather remains wearable rather than aggressive. Development is moderate, with the citrus and spices fading into a nutty-leather dry-down over two to three hours. Projection is strong initially but settles to a moderate radius, lasting seven to nine hours. Ideal for fall evenings and formal occasions where its complex character can be appreciated.
