Our take

Picture a quiet bar after midnight, wood paneling, a glass of dark rum going warm on the table: that is the mood Jazz Club is built around. Longevity holds an unremarkable middle course, present for a good while without turning into a marathon, and the sillage stays a close-range presence, felt mainly by whoever you are sitting with. Pink pepper and lemon flash briefly at the start before rum and clary sage take the lead, and tobacco leaf, vanilla bean and styrax settle it into a warm, sweet, slightly boozy base. Java vetiver oil and neroli sit quietly underneath, adding a faint green backbone beneath all that sweetness.

This belongs to the coldest, darkest stretch of the year, built for evenings more than office hours, for late dinners and bars where the pace is slow. Someone who wants a bright, citrus-forward morning scent will find nothing here for them, and neither will anyone hoping for a clean, understated scent for the office.

The rum and tobacco pairing carries the whole fragrance, warm and dark in feeling, and it earns its place on cold nights out year after year.
