By the editors · 2 min readPink pepper and bergamot open dry and slightly metallic — there is no fruit-driven sweetness, and the citrus is more about lift than zest. The transition is fast: within minutes the perfume settles into its sandalwood-patchouli core, where it stays for most of the wear.
What keeps it from reading as a single accord is benzoin, threading through the base and pulling the woods toward a softly resinous, almost vanillic register without ever turning sweet. Amber sits underneath as a unifier rather than a featured note. The result is a focused, deliberately compact woody fragrance — closer to a signature drydown than a developing composition — that wears long and close to skin. Best in cooler weather and evening or workday contexts; minimal projection by design.
