Dilis Classic Collection No. 23
Fragrance notes
Character
Grapefruit and pepper open the scent with a bright, prickly lift. The citrus feels sharp rather than sweet, and the pepper adds a dry bite that keeps the start from leaning fruity. Mint enters soon after, cool and clean, sitting beside the bitter edge of gentiana. There is a watery freshness that moves through the heart, light enough to keep the spice from feeling heavy.
Coal brings a dark, mineral streak through the middle. It reads like wet stone and cold air, not like fire or ash. That mineral quality gives the mint and gentiana a rugged backdrop, turning a fresh accord into something with weight and texture. The aquatic note here is not tropical or beachy. It feels like a stream running over rock in cool weather.
Birch and leather take over with a smoky, woody depth. The birch adds a tar-like sharpness that pairs closely with the coal from earlier, while the leather brings a smooth, slightly oily warmth. Amber sits underneath, rounding the edges without making the base sweet. The drydown stays dry and mineral, with the leather growing softer as the birch and smoke linger in the background.
Dilís Parfum built a fresh spicy scent that wears well on a crisp morning walk or a bright afternoon outdoors. It fits someone who likes leather and smoke but wants them carried by citrus and mint rather than buried in heavy resin. The mineral and aquatic touches keep it from feeling like a standard leather fragrance, making it easy to reach for when the air is cool and the light is clear.
