Reviewed profile
An aromatic fougère built on lavender, oakmoss and tonka, with beeswax and leather giving it the feel of a tailor's workroom. Cardamom and violet leaf sharpen the top while myrrh and cedar settle the base, elegant and quietly worked.

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.
