By the editors · 2 min readClove leads the opening, sharp and warm, with grapefruit and bergamot adding a brief citrus snap that quickly burns off against the spice. The introduction reads serious and slightly medicinal.
Leather emerges in the heart, supple and worn rather than raw, with castoreum lending an animalic depth that pushes the leather toward something more primitive. Rose threads through, dark and barely floral, lifting the leather without softening it.
The base is dry and smoky — sandalwood, ambergris, vetiver, and cypriol forming a vetiver-and-resin floor that holds the leather steady. The drydown reads as a smoky animalic leather built for cold weather, lasting long, projecting strong, and unapologetically masculine in its register.
