Fragrance notes
Character
Incense and saffron start the fragrance with a dry, resinous heat. Black pepper adds a sharp bite that cuts through the initial density. The opening feels austere and focused on spice rather than sweetness.
Rose and osmanthus soften the heart, but the oud here is dense and medicinal rather than polished. Patchouli and vetiver anchor the base with an earthy, root-like texture. Black leather brings a rugged, slightly tarry edge to the amber, creating a finish that feels heavy and unapologetically dark. The drydown is where the composition finds its true weight, moving away from bright spice into a deep, resinous woodiness that clings to the skin with a smoky, aromatic presence.
Composed by Ali Abdulla Almarzooqi, this is a scent for cooler evenings when a bold statement feels appropriate. It fits a wardrobe built around traditional oriental materials and heavy fabrics. Wear it to a formal dinner or a night out where a classic, powerful impression is welcome.
