Rule #7 Bold
Fragrance notes
Character
Grapefruit and lemon arrive with a sharp, cold edge that cuts through the air. The citrus is bright and unpolished, not smoothed out for easy wear. Tonka bean enters soon after and brings a soft, rounded sweetness that sits close to the skin. Lily adds a clean white floral layer that feels more like a surface than a deep bouquet.
Cashmere wood and guaiac wood form a dry, resinous foundation that anchors the lighter notes above. Patchouli lends an earthy weight that keeps the composition grounded. Vetiver contributes a grassy, root-like texture that runs through the final drydown. The mix of woods creates a dense, slightly smoky atmosphere.
The scent feels bold and unapologetic, leaning into contrast rather than balance. It suits someone who enjoys standing out in a crowd and does not mind a fragrance that demands attention. Those who prefer light, airy compositions or subtle skin scents will likely find it overwhelming. It works best in cool weather and evening settings.
Rule #7 Bold smells like walking into a room where someone just sanded a piece of dark furniture near an open window, with a bowl of citrus fruit sitting on the sill.
