By the editors · 2 min readRum and black currant open with a sweet, boozy fruitiness that feels both rich and slightly tart. Raspberry and jasmine form a fruity-floral heart that is jammy yet lightly floral, avoiding excessive sweetness. Sandalwood and cedar provide a dry, woody base that adds structure and prevents the fragrance from becoming cloying. Musk lends a clean, skin-scent quality that emerges in the dry-down after the top notes fade. Projection is moderate initially but recedes to an intimate trail within two hours of application. Longevity averages five to seven hours, making it suitable for evening wear in cooler seasons.
