Fragrance profile
The opening is a crisp, peppery spark that immediately provides a mineral freshness. Black pepper introduces a subtle heat, while mineral notes evoke a cool, stone-like brightness that pairs beautifully with warm, resinous ambience. The heart unfolds with vanilla and almond sweetness tempered by tobacco’s soft smoke and cedar’s dry, architectural edge. In the base, tonka bean adds creamy warmth, teak wood lends a rich, woody dryness, and musk supplies a smooth, lingering skin-soft finish. The result is an amber woody signature that feels both luxurious and grounded—perfect for formal occasions or upscale evenings.
