About

Abjar opens with a pungent, almost challenging blast of musky leather and earthy cypress, quickly joined by rich, animalic notes of civet and castoreum. As it evolves, a smoky incense accord dances with dark oud and birch, softened slightly by honeyed florals. The dry down is a complex tapestry of warm amber, tobacco, and resinous woods, lingering with immense depth and a hint of rugged sweetness.
