Fragrance Character

A unisex animalic-oriental fragrance decant with remarkable depth and refinement. The opening is bright and spiced, with bergamot, cardamom and nutmeg giving the composition lift and definition. As it develops, creamy ylang-ylang, cedarwood and tolu balsam bring warmth and smoothness. The drydown is the true signature: ambergris and deer musk wrapped in vanilla, tonka, oakmoss and vetiver, creating a skin-like aura that feels sensual, noble and quietly powerful.

Performance
