Cinnamon sparks the top with a hot, almost candied snap that rides over cool lavender and grapefruit, while styrax and leather darken the edges before the first minute closes.

By the editors · 2 min readCinnamon sparks the top with a hot, almost candied snap that rides over cool lavender and grapefruit, while styrax and leather darken the edges before the first minute closes. Heart smoke thickens as olibanum, myoud and guaiac fuse into a resinous plank, cedar sharpening the grain and cashmeran adding a clean musk halo that keeps the censer from turning acrid. Late dry-down pumps ambergris, vanilla and tonka through the still-smoldering oud-tobacco lattice, so the skin smells like sweet ash salted with sea crystals for eight hours straight. Projection carries a two-foot incense trail; the accord feels richest when cool night air can crystallise the resins.
