Semi-Bespoke No. 25
Fragrance notes
Character
Semi-Bespoke No. 25 opens with aldehydes that crackle like static over a bright mandarin orange. Tuberose and jasmine sambac sit at the center, heavy and creamy. Orange blossom adds a clean lift beside the rounded softness of heliotrope. May rose and apple bring a faint, green sweetness to the heart.
Ylang-ylang deepens the floral side while the base begins to show saffron and oud. Cypriol and cashmere wood create a dry, textured foundation. Suede and leather arrive with birch tar, giving the blend a worn, resinous edge. Labdanum and amber add warmth without turning the scent sugary.
Cinnamon and cloves prick the surface of the resin. Benzoin and vanilla smooth the spices into a thick, golden layer. Sandalwood and balsam fir hold a quiet, forest-like presence beneath the heavier woods. Patchouli and musk settle close to the skin, dark and earthy.
Grass sits unexpected near the bottom, fresh against leather and smoke. The room is dim, the air cool, and a heavy wool coat carries the scent of oud, suede, and tuberose through a silent, lamplit street.
