How it develops
It opens bright and herbal, angelica, sage and bergamot lifted by a peppery spark that keeps the first minutes crisp and aromatic. The heart warms as tobacco and patchouli move in against smooth woody notes, adding a dry, slightly sweet depth. The drydown is the heart of it: tonka, vanilla and cashmere wood folded into labdanum, ambroxan, orris and a quiet thread of oud, settling into a warm, resinous amber-woods base that feels expansive yet controlled.
