D.S. & Durga Cognac Reign is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2025, created by David Seth Moltz. Cognac Reign opens with Woody, Bergamot, and Caramel, settles into a heart of Cognac and Orris, and dries down to a base of Oak and Tonka Bean. D.S. & Durga's Cognac Reign carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a divisive marvel. Some reckon it's a sophisticated boozy-woody dream, all antique grandeur and smooth cognac. Others? They're getting full-on ashtray and stale cigarettes. You'll either love its regal depth or be utterly repulsed by its smoky facets. Brace yourself for a strong opinion.

Best Occasions

About

Opening with a crisp bergamot that quickly cedes to a rich, caramelised woody warmth, this scent plunges into a heart of luxurious orris and deeply aromatic cognac. As it settles, robust oak and vanilla-tinged tonka bean emerge, creating a powdery, subtly sweet, and earthy dry-down. It's an opulent, textured blend where boozy warmth meets refined woody powder.
