Tonka Oud
Fragrance notes
Character
May rose and geranium open the scent with a floral lift that feels fresh rather than powdery. The rose carries a dewy quality that gives way to the heart, where valerian and Haitian vetiver introduce an earthy, slightly bitter edge. Patchouli sits in the middle, adding a dark soil note that grounds the flowers without overwhelming them.
Cambodian oud and tonka bean form the base, creating a resinous blend that feels substantial on the skin. The tonka bean brings a smooth, almond-like sweetness that balances the dry wood of the oud. This combination creates a trail that stays near the body, noticeable to those nearby without extending far into the space around you.
The composition holds its character through a day spent outdoors in cool air. It suits the atmosphere of a gray sky and a heavy coat, feeling appropriate when the light is bright but the temperature is low. The scent remains present on the skin for an extended period, maintaining its structure from the first application until the evening.
This fragrance is for someone who enjoys the contrast between bright florals and heavy woods. It works well for daily wear during the colder months when you want a scent that feels close and personal rather than expansive.
