About

The X Code kicks off with a sharp, zesty bergamot layered over a keen, peppery spice, creating an immediate and invigorating presence. This quickly settles into a rich and rugged heart of worn leather, bolstered by the dry woods of cedar and an earthy, intriguing patchouli. The dry down is all about masculine warmth, with deep woody tones, a clean musk, and a comforting amber that lingers with impressive longevity. It's a scent that evolves, revealing new facets as the day progresses.
