Monk
Fragrance notes
Character
Monk suits the person who wants a fragrance that feels composed and deliberate. It is made for evenings when the plan is to be present in the room without dominating it. The wearer is someone who appreciates a scent that has weight and texture.
The opening brings bergamot and bitter orange together with galbanum and African orange flower. This creates a citrus layer that is bright and green at once. The bitterness of the orange keeps the fruit from leaning sweet.
The heart moves into incense and rose, supported by beeswax, cacao, and lime blossom. Ambrette adds a soft musk around the smoke and the flower. The wax and the cacao give the middle a dense, warm feel that surrounds the lighter citrus notes.
The base rests on birch, sandalwood, and Virginia cedar, with civetta, benzoin, jasmine, tonka bean, and vanilla. The result is an amber, woody, and smoky drydown that stays warm, spicy, and lightly animalic.
