About

Opens with an intriguing blend of jasmine, neroli, and soft suede, quickly giving way to a rich, complex heart of lavender, rose, and iris, deepened by spicy carnation and exotic ylang-ylang. The base unfurls into a luxurious tapestry of musky castoreum, civet, and supple leather, balanced by earthy vetiver and patchouli, sweet vanilla, and a hint of tobacco for a truly profound and lasting impression.
