Before you buy

Scent profile includes estimates

Smells like hazelnut and pear skin · spiced saffron rose · sweet amber vanilla wood

For anyone who wants a sweet, nutty, amber-woody scent worn day to day — less suited to those who prefer sharp, clean, or citrus-led openings.

Sampling tip Try it on skin through the drydown before choosing a full bottle. Wear varies from person to person.

Story

Section 7 of 7

For anyone who wants a sweet, nutty, amber-woody scent worn day to day — less suited to those who prefer sharp, clean, or citrus-led openings.

Pear, Frankincense, and Hazelnut open soft and nutty-sweet. Saffron, Rose, Jasmine Sambac, and Osmanthus bring a warm, spiced floral heart. The drydown is sweet and woody — Cistus, Sandalwood, Akigalawood, Ambergris, and Vanilla settle into a warm amber finish. Longevity runs long, making it a confident everyday scent rather than a quiet one.
