Leather and earthy patchouli dominate, with cinnamon and cumin adding a warm, slightly animal edge over labdanum and amber. It is dark and dry, a strong leather-patchouli with real projection.

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.
