Scent Profile
Composition
Timeline
Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear
Best Seasons
A cold-weather scent. The smouldering incense, warm spice, and labdanum-leather base read thick and contemplative on cool skin, placing it firmly in autumn and winter; a minority of wearers find the smoothness wearable in warmer weather.
Best Occasions
Its dark, smoky incense character and intimate-to-moderate sillage make it a poor sport or bright-daytime pick but a strong choice for date nights and formal cool-weather evenings, with casual winter wear viable thanks to its close-to-skin softness. Several reviewers note it settles quickly to a skin scent, so it is unobtrusive enough for a quiet office.
