Notes

Top notes

  • Ink
  • Cardamom Cool, aromatic and sweetly spicy, with a camphor and citrus lift.
  • Olibanum Cool, lemony and peppery resin smoke, like a quiet stone church.
  • Rhubarb Tart, crisp and juicy, with a sharp green-fruity acidity and a hint of sweetness.
  • Pink Pepper Bright, rosy and peppery, lighter and fruitier than black pepper.

Heart notes

  • Guaiac Wood Smoky, sweet and tea-like wood with a gentle, leathery warmth.
  • Jasmine Sweet, heady white blossom with an indolic, almost animal warmth.
  • Saffron Leathery, golden and slightly metallic spice with a dry, honeyed warmth.

Base notes

  • Amber A warm, golden, resin-and-vanilla effect, soft, sweet and enveloping.
  • Cedar Dry, pencil-shaving wood, clean and slightly smoky.
  • Musk Soft, clean, skin-like warmth, from fresh laundry to warm skin.
  • Patchouli Earthy, damp and chocolatey, dark leaf with a camphor edge.
  • Oakmoss Damp forest floor, bittersweet and slightly salty-green.
