Our take

Saffron and jasmine form the opening. The saffron is dry and slightly metallic, the jasmine bright and clean. They sit together without blending into a single soft blur. The florals carry a sharp edge that keeps the start from feeling rounded or overly smooth.

Ambergris and amberwood take over in the middle. The ambergris adds a warm, animalic depth that feels close and textured. The amberwood supports it with a resinous weight. This part of the composition is steady and warm, leaning fully into the amber accord without becoming sweet.

Cedar and fir resin close the structure. The cedar is dry and straight, the fir resin aromatic and slightly sticky. They ground the warmer heart notes with a woody frame. The transition is clear, moving from heat to a drier, more forest-like finish that stays present through the end.

The full accord list includes woody, amber, warm spicy, aromatic, fresh spicy, animalic, and metallic. The cedar note lingers at the very end.
