Amanoamano by Maison Gabriella Chieffo is a unisex release built on heavy spice and smoky undertones. It centers around a warm cardamom opening that leads into a dense beeswax and mint heart, before settling into a dry incense, oud, and leather base. It suits collectors looking for a sweet yet smoky autumn profile.
