In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Eau d’E is a dry, woody aromatic built around lavender, cypress, spice and a touch of animalic leather. It opens green and brisk, then settles into a sharper spicy woodiness with a smoky, old-school feel. This looks best suited to wearers who enjoy niche fragrances with a vintage edge rather than easy crowd-pleasers. …

Reviews →

Ultimo Noir opens with bright tangerine, bergamot, and sharp cypress before shifting into a warm heart of clove and cardamom. The dry-down relies on dark teak wood, suede, and musk. It brings a solid option for cold autumn evenings or casual night outs when you want something woody with a citrus kick.
