Imitation Man

Notes

Top notes

• Pepper Dry, warm and sharply aromatic, with a tingling bite.
• Citron
• Nutmeg Warm, nutty and slightly sweet spice with a soft, powdery depth.

Heart notes

• Violet Sweet, powdery and faintly green, like candied petals.
• Rose Petals, honey and a touch of wine; can lean fresh and dewy or deep and jammy.
• Iris Cool, buttery, powdery and slightly earthy, like lipstick and cold stone; taken from the root, not the flower.

• Patchouli Earthy, damp and chocolatey, dark leaf with a camphor edge.
• Myrrh Warm, bittersweet, slightly medicinal resin, with a smoky, leathery depth.
• Vetiver Earthy, smoky, green root with a dry, grassy depth.
• Castoreum Leathery, animalic and warm, with a smoky sweetness.
