Reviewed profile
Tarry, kerosene-edged leather over smoky styrax and dry vetiver, deliberately industrial. Provocative and challenging, it turns the smell of asphalt and resin into something strange and compelling.

Tar keeps the sweetness pared back, dry and austere. That is 30th percentile for sweetness across 5,283 scored fragrances.
Projection, risk and texture describe how a fragrance behaves in a room and on skin. Where wear reports are thin, those scores rest near the middle by design, so a mid-range reading here is a statement about the evidence as much as about the scent. Warmth and sweetness are derived from composition and do not carry that caveat.
