Fragrance notes
Character
Grapefruit and red chilli pepper open the composition with a sharp, bright sting that cuts through the air immediately. The citrus is bitter and acidic rather than sweet, and the pepper adds a dry heat that keeps the opening from feeling like a standard fresh start. It is a direct entrance that announces the fragrance before any other element appears.
The heart shifts toward tobacco and bourbon whiskey, supported by gin, violet, jasmine, and tuberose. The tobacco is rich and slightly dry, while the whiskey brings a warm, rounded depth that feels heavier than the opening. The floral notes soften the intensity without making the blend gentle. Violet adds a powdery touch, and the white flowers contribute a creamy texture that sits against the alcohol-infused core.
Leather, suede, and birch tar form a dark, resinous base alongside frankincense, patchouli, amber, musk, oakmoss, and oud. The leather is prominent and slightly rough, the birch tar adds a heavy smoke, and the oud provides a deep, woody bitterness. Frankincense gives a faint resinous lift, while amber and musk round out the lower register with warmth. The overall texture is dense and layered.
The mood fits a dimly lit room where glasses rest on dark wood and the air carries smoke and polished leather.
