About

Ritual Code opens with an unapologetic blast of smoke, like a crackling bonfire with a dry, sharp edge. This intense primal scent is quickly joined by an untamed animalic growl and the rich, dark earthiness of a forest floor. As the initial ferocity softens, a complex green accord emerges, interwoven with warm amber and subtle resinous sweetness, transforming the scent into something surprisingly fresh and refined. The dry-down reveals a sophisticated, almost vintage-like green masculinity.
