In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Air Tiger by Marc Gebauer makes zero apologies. The opening hits with a punch of crushed green cardamom and tart lemon before dry juniper adds a crisp snap. Give it five minutes. Soon, heavy birch tar and rugged leather muscle past the citrus. Earthy patchouli and cedarwood anchor the midsection with rugged authority.…

Reviews →

Caritas opens with a brisk pop of cardamom and tart red fruits before settling into a dense base of leather, amber, and vanilla. Warm cloves and cinnamon give the heart a cozy spice, while a milky rose note smooths out the edges. It sits on skin like a soothing, sweet cloud, ideal for chilly autumn mornings.
