JEMS 10 Red Meat
Fragrance notes
Character
JEMS 10 Red Meat by Jinx Smells is a masculine oriental fragrance composed by Arthur Clay Emrick. It opens with Mysore sandalwood, which also carries through the heart and anchors the base. The sandalwood is smooth and creamy, giving the composition a steady, woody foundation from the first spray.
The heart expands with natural musk, ambergris, amber, and civet. These notes create a warm, animalic layer that feels dense and slightly primal. Coriander, citruses, and geranium add a fresh spicy and aromatic lift, while lily and iris bring a powdery, white floral softness. The result is a mix of amber, musky, aromatic, powdery, fresh spicy, iris, white floral, citrus, and soft spicy accords that sit together in a heavy, resinous blend.
The sandalwood remains the clearest thread throughout, but the civet and ambergris can feel sharp and rough to those who prefer clean, polished compositions. The citrus elements are subtle and quickly absorbed by the heavier base materials. The overall texture is thick rather than airy, and the animalic facets are prominent rather than background accents. The fragrance feels unrefined in its execution, with the wilder notes pushing harder than the balanced ones.
