Our take

Scorpio opens with a brisk mix of davana, pink pepper, lemon, and neroli that feels bright and slightly herbal. The citrus gives immediate lift while the pepper adds a quiet snap, and the davana brings a fruity, slightly wine-like edge that keeps the start from settling into a standard fresh opening. The heart moves into rum, vetiver, and clary sage, where the rum note turns warm and lightly boozy, the vetiver adds an earthy green texture, and the clary sage smooths the transition with a soft, slightly medicinal herbal touch.

The drydown carries most of the weight here. Tobacco and vanilla bean lead, supported by styrax, and the result is a sweet, woody, and balsamic finish that feels rounded rather than sharp. The tobacco keeps the vanilla from leaning too sugary, while the styrax adds a resinous depth that lingers on the skin. It suits cooler evenings when the air feels crisp and the night stretches ahead, fitting a mood that is relaxed but intentional. The aromatic and soft spicy accords run through the whole composition, tying the green top to the amber-heavy base. It is a cohesive blend that stays close to its core notes without drifting, ending on a steady mix of tobacco and vanilla.
