Calamity J is a polarising beast, a true love-it-or-hate-it scent. Some find it a sophisticated, soft amber-patchouli dream, others a 'calamity' of burned wood and 'wet sauvage animal hair'. It's been discontinued, which only adds to its mystique and desirability for its fans.

Tragedy channels Juliette Has A Gun's Calamity J with its powdery iris over a smoky woody-amber musk. That dandyish, unisex character comes through, though it wears even closer to the skin than the already-intimate original.
