Fragrance Notes

Top: Cardamom, Pink Pepper, Geranium
Heart: Patchouli, Cinnamon, Rose
Base: Leather, Oud, Amber

What It Smells Like

It opens with a burst of cardamom and peppery spice, softened by a fresh geranium lift. Soon, patchouli and cinnamon add a dry warmth, with rose giving a subtle floral sheen rather than a sweet bouquet. The dry-down turns darker and smoother, where leather becomes the focus. Oud and amber sit underneath, adding depth and a warm glow that lingers on clothes and skin.

Who Is It For

Marketed as unisex and it wears that way, though it can read slightly more traditionally masculine because of the leather and spice. Best for anyone who wants a bold signature with a polished finish.

When to Wear

Ideal for fall and winter, mostly evenings and cooler nights.
