Zigane (Tzigane)
Fragrance notes
Character
Zigane opens with clary sage and lavender that feel dry and herbal rather than cooling. Bergamot adds a bright lift before orange blossom brings a soft, slightly soapy floral edge. The heart gathers rose and iris into a powdery cloud that sits close to the skin. Gardenia and carnation push through with a peppery warmth that keeps the flowers from feeling delicate. Geranium tightens the blend with a green, stem-like snap.
Cloves and oakmoss anchor the base in a dark, earthy chypre tradition. Cedar and sandalwood give the woods a smooth, polished surface. Leather enters with a worn, saddle-like texture that pairs well with the resinous weight of amber. Musk and coumarin add a sweet, hay-like softness while patchouli deepens the earth. The overall impression is a velvet curtain in a dim room, heavy and rich. Wear it when the evening calls for something with history and weight, suited to someone who enjoys a classic, unapologetically complex composition.
