Imprint On the Road is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015, created by Timothy Han. On the Road opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Lavender, and Galbanum, settles into a heart of Amyris, Cedar, and Patchouli, and dries down to a base of Guaiac Wood, Birch, Oakmoss, and Vanilla. Imprint's On the Road carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

Divisive, challenging, and profoundly artistic, On the Road is a fragrance that isn't for everyone. Some find it a masterpiece of smoky leather and complex woods, others recoil at its tarry, industrial opening. Approach with an open mind, but be prepared for a wild ride.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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.

Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

Given its strong, smoky, and often polarising opening, this fragrance is unsuitable for office or sport. It shines on dates and formal occasions where its uniqueness and sophisticated dry down can be appreciated, though some may find the initial 'highway' smell too informal for all but the most casual settings.

About

On the Road opens with a jarring blast of sharp galbanum, bright bergamot and lemon, softened by a hint of lavender. This soon gives way to a smoky heart of birch and guaiac wood, intertwined with earthy patchouli and dry cedar. The journey ends in a rich, balsamic embrace of labdanum, benzoin, and vanilla, underpinned by masculine oakmoss and leathery touches, leaving a rugged yet comforting trail on the skin.
