No.116 Rude Boy

No.116 is Eden's own composition, not built around a single named original, though its warm-spicy-amber shape will feel familiar to fans of mainstream men's fragrances. It opens fresh and a little sharp thanks to bergamot and a lavender-led aromatic lift, before easing into a sweeter middle built on cardamom and cacao - a slightly gourmand touch that sets it apart from a straightforward spicy fougere. The base is where the character lands: amber, soft woods and vanilla give it a dark, inviting warmth that reads more nightclub than office. It's a familiar-smelling scent in the best sense, easy to wear and unlikely to challenge anyone, though it doesn't push into anything particularly distinctive either. Best suited to ages 25 and up according to Eden's own positioning, and best worn in cooler months since the sweetness can turn cloying in heat.
