Lost Tribe - Lost Lotus

Storax and yellow mandarin crack open over a dense floral core, where blue lotus, pink lotus, tuberose, and osmanthus bloom together in layered, resinous depth before three distinct ouds pull everything down into incense-dusted wood.

The Nose

Composed by Mathew Schmuelian and Rajesh Balkrishnan for Lost Tribe, also behind Prince Of Persia, Equatorial and Past & Present.

Fragrance Character

The opening is balsamic and citrus-edged, storax lending a smoky, tar-soft warmth that yellow mandarin cuts clean. As it settles, the florals press forward in a humid, almost tropical register, tuberose and frangipani richest among them, with linden blossom adding a honeyed, slightly green counterpoint. The base is where this fragrance commits fully: Indian, Thailand, and Laotian ouds converge with frankincense and musk into something dense and slow-burning, sitting close to skin by the final hours but never disappearing.

Best Worn

An autumn evening or a cool spring night suits it best, worn when the air carries enough chill to hold the resin close and the occasion calls for something with quiet authority.

Why the Lost Lotus Decant

Three ouds, a full floral chorus, storax, and frankincense make this a substantial commitment, and a decant lets you gauge how that dense, layered structure reads on your skin before investing in the bottle.
