Fragrance notes
Character
Coffee and nutmeg open the fragrance with a dry, roasted edge. Thyme adds a green, herbaceous lift that keeps the opening from feeling heavy. The carrot seeds introduce an earthy, slightly bitter root note that stands out among the brighter spices.
Raspberry appears in the heart, but it is not a sugary fruit. It carries a tart, slightly acidic quality that cuts through the dense white florals. Iris and rose provide a powdery, vintage feel, while tuberose and jasmine push the scent into a rich, opulent territory.
Leather and amber form a warm, slightly animalic base. The vanilla is present but restrained, blending into the oakmoss and patchouli rather than dominating them. The scent stays near the skin, creating a personal bubble of warmth that requires a close encounter to detect fully.
The composition holds together well throughout the wear, though the friction between the sharp coffee and the soft florals can feel disjointed. It is a specific mix that does not fully settle into a single identity. The blend of fruit and leather may simply not appeal to everyone.
