Character
Birch and cardamom sit beside labdanum, giving the blend a resinous heat that feels heavy on the skin. Incense threads through vetiver and Peru balsam, so the air around the wearer stays marked for a good while without reaching far across a space. Guaiac wood anchors the mix, keeping the amber and leather accords from floating away too soon.
