BLACKWOOD
Fragrance notes
Character
Someone looking for a grounded, slightly moody scent for cool nights will find a lot to like here. BLACKWOOD moves through a range of textures without losing its center. The opening brings marjoram and mint forward alongside bergamot, with orchid adding a soft floral lift. It feels herbal and citrusy at first, then the green edge takes over.
The heart introduces the namesake blackwood note with lily-of-the-valley and iris. The wood reads dark and slightly damp, while the flowers keep the blend from turning too heavy. There is a powdery quality that builds here, sitting between the fresh top and the deeper base.
Dark patchouli and leather lead the base, supported by vanilla and orris. The vanilla smooths the sharper edges without making the fragrance sweet. Leather adds a dry, slightly rugged feel, and the orris reinforces the powdery iris from earlier. The overall impression is woody, earthy, and aromatic with a clear herbal thread.
It suits someone comfortable with floral notes that lean powdery rather than bright. The mix of leather and patchouli gives it a serious tone that fits dimly lit streets and heavy coats. Green and citrus accents prevent it from feeling flat, but the weight stays low and rooted throughout the wear
