About

Opens with a potent, fiery kick of pimiento and ginger, brightened by bergamot, before settling into a heart of rich, warm spices and clean lavender. The base grounds it with earthy vetiver and the distinct, diffusive woodiness of Akigalawood, lending it a modern, almost metallic edge that some find addictive and others a bit much. Sophisticated, clean, and unmistakably bold.
