Rio
Fragrance notes
Character
Rio opens with a bright raspberry note that carries a tart edge, joined by fresh geranium and a soft rose. Oud appears early, adding a dry and resinous depth that grounds the fruit. The combination feels dense from the first moment, with the rose lending a gentle floral touch while the oud provides a dark foundation.
Benzoin and birch form the heart, creating a warm and slightly charred atmosphere. The benzoin offers a sweet resinous quality that clings to the birch, which contributes a smoky leather character. Saffron in the base brings a golden, slightly metallic spice, while incense wraps the composition in a steady trail of aromatic smoke.
The overall feel is rich and resinous, with the fruit softening as the amber and oud take hold. It suits a quiet street after rain when the air is cool and the trees are bare, and the warmth of a heavy coat mirrors the fragrance's depth.
