About

Carbon Sapphire opens with a bold, floral flourish of Bulgarian rose and geranium, underpinned by the woody elegance of rosewood. As it develops, a rich heart of Rose de Mai and warm saffron takes centre stage, leading into a deep, earthy drydown. This luxurious fragrance settles into a complex blend of powerful oud, soft amber, and various smoky woods like guaiac and cypriol, creating a truly opulent and long-lasting experience.
