By the editors · 2 min readBrown sugar opens with a rich, molasses-like sweetness that feels warm and slightly gourmand. Plum and vanilla deepen the heart, adding a fruity, creamy roundness that contrasts with the emerging leather and vetiver. Patchouli provides an earthy, slightly dry foundation that balances the sweetness and adds texture to the dry-down. The scent evolves noticeably, moving from a sugary opening to a more rugged, leather-woody finish over three hours. Projection is strong initially but settles to moderate, with good longevity for evening or cool-weather occasions. It suits fall and winter wear, especially for dates or formal events where a bold presence is desired.
