Imprint Heart Of Darkness is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019, created by Timothy Han. Heart Of Darkness opens with Jasmine, Violet, Ylang-Ylang, and Galbanum, settles into a heart of Coal, Leather, Cedar, and Sandalwood, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Patchouli, and Oakmoss. Imprint's Heart Of Darkness carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a divisive ode to darkness, loved by some for its rugged, unique charm and dismissed by others for its fleeting performance and an aroma best described as 'smoking in a new car'. It's not a crowd-pleaser, but if you're into an edgy, introspective journey, this could be your poison.

About

Opening with a surprisingly green and fresh violet, jasmine, and galbanum, Heart Of Darkness quickly plunges into an almost primal core. Layers of rich leather, earthy vetiver, smoke from coal and birch tar, and deep woods like guaiac and cedar dominate. The dry-down settles into a damp, musky base of patchouli and oakmoss which some find quite pleasant after a less appealing start, carrying a lingering hint of amber's warmth.
