Top Notes
The fragrance opens with a note of amaretto, with its delicious almondy sweetness. It is accompanied by bright bergamot and a blend of spices that adds a subtle warmth. This opening is captivating and full of warmth from the very first moment. The sweetness of almonds blends with the radiance of citrus in an unexpected opening that lingers in the memory.
The Heart of the Fragrance
At the heart, soft leather notes emerge alongside deep, earthy patchouli. Neroli blossom adds a bright, clean, white touch that balances the intensity of the leather and lends it a touch of light. Here, the fragrance becomes richer and more masculine, with a subtle floral sparkle. This heart note gives the fragrance its deeply sensual character, transforming the initial sweetness into a mature, dark elegance.
Base Note
The base notes rest on creamy sandalwood and warm musk. Cistus adds a smoky, resinous touch, while vetiver lends an elegant, dry woody note. This warm, woody scent lingers on the skin and clothing for hours. As time passes, the fragrance becomes softer and warmer, leaving a woody, musky aura close to the skin.
Who is this fragrance for?
This fragrance is for the man who loves sophisticated sweetness blended with leather and woody notes. It’s perfect for evenings and special occasions, and can be worn sparingly on cold workdays. Thanks to its high concentration, just two sprays on the neck and wrists are enough.
