The initial spray delivers a zesty burst of tart grapefruit and sweet orange, quickly dusted with dry kitchen spices and resinous labdanum. As the bright citrus settles, the perfume shifts into a deep, tactile heart dominated by worn black leather, charred birch smoke, and earthy cypriol oil. A soft ribbon of dark caramel and warm amber smooths out the edges, preventing the smoky woods from feeling harsh or bitter.
