By the editors · 2 min readSaffron opens with a distinctively warm, slightly medicinal spice that feels both opulent and dry. Jasmine and ylang-ylang soon bloom into a narcotic floral heart, deepened by patchouli’s earthy bitterness and rose’s velvety richness. Leather and oakmoss dominate the base, adding a rugged, tannic quality that contrasts with the florals, while musk and sandalwood provide a soft underpinning. The scent evolves dramatically, from spicy-floral to leathery-mossy, with strong sillage that remains potent for hours. Best for fall evenings and formal events, it balances intensity with complexity.
