Our take

Higher Black opens with a bright, juicy pull of peach and pear that feels sun-warmed. Amalfi lemon adds a sharp, clean edge, while a cool thread of mint keeps the fruit from feeling heavy. It is a crisp start that immediately suggests open air and movement.

Cypress and rosemary take over with a resinous, herbal bite. The green, aromatic character here is assertive and leans into the spicy side of the accord list. This heart gives the fragrance a structured, masculine backbone that feels purposeful.

Pear wood anchors the finish with a dry, creamy texture that lingers on the skin for an extended period. Musk wraps the wood in a soft, powdery haze that stays present in the space around you. The sweetness from the opening settles into a warm, woody musk that feels substantial.

The fruit fades, but the wood and herb remain clear and distinct. It suits a man walking through a city park on a clear morning, hands in his pockets, the scent trailing behind him like sunlight through tall trees.
