Scent Description

The opening is crisp and bright through Sicilian Mandarin, offering a fresh, solar quality that gradually gives way to warmer tones. According to the brand, the journey begins with “a heady rush of resinous Australian Desert Rosewood… sweetness of mandarin and vanilla”. As the citrus brightness subsides, cardamom from India and benzoin from Laos introduce aromatic spice and resinous warmth. The cardamom brings subtle green-spicy clarity, while benzoin adds a creamy, balsamic sweetness. Fragrantica describes the scent as “well-composed … sweet, woody, and peppery”. At the foundation lies the richly textured Australian Desert Rosewood (a palisander rosewood type), paired with creamy vanilla and dark Indonesian patchouli. These components contribute a deep woody-resinous character with gourmand touches and a mild leathery edge. According to a reviewer: “fresh, spicy, woody … robust and classy”. The fragrance family of Oriental Woody is fully represented here, combining woody structure with amber/resinous sweetness and a hint of gourmand vanilla. Seasonal suitability leans toward cooler weather (autumn/winter) given the richness of woods and resins, though it can function all year for those seeking warmth and depth.
