Obsidian
Fragrance notes
Character
Obsidian by La Bonte Paris opens with a bright citrus spray. Bergamot, orange, grapefruit, and tangerine hit first. Saffron and star anise add a dry, fresh spicy edge to the fruit. The top feels energetic and slightly sharp.
Jasmine and narcissus form a floral heart. The white flowers sit close to the skin. Labdanum and oud create a heavy amber and woody base. Caramel and cotton candy push the scent into a sweet, mossy territory. The accord list includes earthy and musky tones. The overall impression is rich and dense.
The caramel and cotton candy notes make the fragrance very sweet. The sugar is prominent throughout the wear. This level of sweetness can feel heavy for daily use. The composition leans fully into its gourmand side. It is a bold choice that demands a tolerance for sugar.
