By the editors · 2 min readCumin and saffron open with immediate warmth and a faintly animalic edge — this is not a shy composition. The spice sits close to the skin but radiates, pulling you in before the heart fully emerges.
Tuberose and ylang-ylang bloom over sandalwood, their creamy richness grounded by clove and iris. The floral register here is dense rather than airy, pushed further by heliotrope's powdery sweetness threading through the petals.
The base is a slow-burning mix of caramel, patchouli, and amber — rounded, resinous, and persistent. Musk keeps everything anchored without lifting it into freshness. A heavy, skin-close composition better suited to cold evenings than warm afternoons.
