By the editors · 2 min readSage and black pepper create an aromatic fresh-spicy opening that feels herbal and sharp. Incense and labdanum form a resinous heart, smoky and slightly church-like in character. Patchouli adds earthy depth while rose provides a faint floral counterpoint to the smoke. Leather and oakmoss dominate the dry-down, creating a rugged, tannic base with animalic undertones from ambergris. The scent evolves significantly from spicy-aromatic to smoky-leathery over four hours. Strong projection lasts for three hours before settling into a skin scent. Best for cool weather and evening wear.
