About

This one opens with a sharp, bright saffron and a hint of bergamot, quickly ushering in a heart of rich, honeyed rose and a prominent, slightly animalic oud. The drydown melts into a warm, intoxicating blend of sugary sweetness from the tonka bean and sugar cane, deepened by amber and a touch of grounded oakmoss. It's a sweet, musky Oud bomb with a metallic edge that lingers endlessly.
