About

Opens with a bright, aldehydic sparkle of mandarin and orange blossom, quickly unfolding into a lush heart of opulent florals from rose and jasmine to ylang-ylang, spiced gently by clove. The real drama is in the base, a deep dive into animalic civet and leather, softened by creamy sandalwood, earthy oakmoss, and the seductive warmth of vanilla, ambergris, and tobacco. It's a journey from light to profound depth.
