The heart deepens with cinnamon, myrrh, and amber, with jasmine and orange blossom adding floral curves underneath. Cedar threads through and reinforces the dry, golden direction. The cinnamon-myrrh-incense braid is dense and persistent.
The drydown is where the composition reveals its animal: oud and civet over sandalwood and tonka, with vetiver lending a leathery dryness and vanilla a soft warmth. The overall character is a smoky-leathery oriental with a clear animalic-civet undertone, dense and warm. Projection is strong, longevity long, and the composition suits cold-weather evening wear where a confident, slightly skin-musky signature is wanted.
