By the editors · 2 min readAt first application, cinnamon and saffron announce themselves with force — a dry, metallic spice over a warm amber base that reads immediately rich. Black pepper adds a sharp edge that keeps the opening from feeling purely sweet.
As it develops, benzoin and vanilla smooth the spice into a resinous warmth, while patchouli grounds the whole thing with an earthy, slightly fermented depth. Sandalwood threads through, adding creaminess without dominating.
The overall character is dense and enveloping — a classic oriental structure where warmth and darkness share equal footing. It wears close to skin in the later hours but maintains presence throughout the development.
