Fragrance notes
Character
Cardamom and bitter orange meet first, but the brightness fades fast. Violet and iris take over quickly, softening the edges without losing the spice. Rose adds a quiet sweetness, though it never leads. The leather in the base feels smooth rather than harsh, sitting close to the skin rather than announcing itself. It stays present through the drydown, mixing with amber and patchouli to keep the scent from turning too powdery.
It fits a night where the air is cool and the streets are loud. Think of a heavy jacket, dim lighting, and conversations that run too late. The cardamom and leather suit that mood, warm and slightly rough. It leans unisex, though it may feel too bold for someone who prefers clean, soapy scents. Wear it when you want to feel put together without smelling like everyone else in the room.
The patchouli here is earthy, not dirty, and it helps the iris last through the evening. It is not a scent for hot weather or bright mornings. Save it for when the sky is dark and the plan is to stay out. It smells like a leather jacket draped over a velvet chair in a room that smells of spice and old wood.
