  • Intoxicating cardamom with a hint of ginger and coriander, bringing a bright, spicy entry .
• Heart:
  • Supple black leather, softening into jasmine sambac, enriched by a cosy amber-vanilla facet  .
• Base:
  • Grounded by patchouli, white moss, vetiver, and amber, leaving a warm, slightly woody and mossy finish  .

🧭 Olfactory Experience
