About

It begins with a sharp, almost chemical jolt of varnish and vibrant ink, evocative of a fresh print shop. Soon, this mellows into a rich, roasted coffee accord, intertwined with delicate orchid and the subtle, dusty sweetness of old paper. A resinous warmth underpins the whole, creating a complex, dark academia atmosphere.
