Modelled profile
Struck-match smoke over juniper, labdanum and cardamom, with wild berries lending a dark fruit edge. It reads smoky and resinous, woody-aromatic with a charred glow. Brooding and atmospheric, holding a steady smolder.

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.
