Tainted
Fragrance notes
You are standing in a dimly lit jazz lounge after midnight. The air is thick with the scent of worn leather armchairs and the low hum of conversation. Someone nearby is wearing Tainted. The opening arrives with a bright, juicy burst of pineapple and mandarin orange, a sweet citrus flash that cuts through the room's shadows. Bergamot adds a sharp edge to the fruit, keeping the atmosphere lively rather than sugary.
As the evening continues, the character shifts. Pink pepper brings a gentle heat that mingles with the cool, green touch of sage. The leather note emerges to anchor the heart, smelling like the polished surface of an old club chair. It is a soft, spicy presence that feels intimate and close, blending the fruit with a rugged, aromatic texture. The smoke from a nearby cigar seems to wrap around these notes, enhancing the animalic and musky depth without overwhelming the space.
Patchouli and moss settle into the floorboards, creating a damp, earthy foundation that supports the ambergris. The fragrance feels like a glass of dark rum sitting on a wooden table, the liquid catching the low light while the room breathes around it.
