About

Zenith Noire opens with a deep, almost inky incense, smoky and mysterious. As it settles, a sweet, resinous amber emerges, softening the initial sharpness while maintaining a dark, sophisticated core. The dry down introduces an earthy vetiver, grounding the fragrance with a subtle green woodiness that feels both natural and refined. It's a journey from ethereal smoke to a warm, rooted embrace.
