About

It kicks off with a brief, bright burst of bergamot and mandarin, quickly giving way to a rich floral heart where rose, magnolia, and ylang-ylang intertwine beautifully. The base emerges with a clean, leathery oud accord, softened by patchouli, saffron, and a smoky-sweet blend of frankincense and styrax. It's a dark, mesmerising dry down, warming and inviting rather than aggressive.
