About

Requiem opens vivaciously with the aromatic kick of pink pepper, interlaced with the luxurious warmth of saffron. The heart unfolds around a sumptuous amber core, rich and inviting, creating an almost boozy embrace. As it settles, the base reveals a complex tapestry of creamy sandalwood, cedar, and the richness of vanilla. Undertones of civet and myrrh add a daring, animalic edge that teeters on the brink of decadence, wrapping you in a luxurious, slightly opulent finish. It's a scent that dances between the familiar and the daring, calling you to explore its depths.
