Modelled profile
The classic green woody chypre: juniper, basil and artemisia over carnation, leather and a deep oakmoss, patchouli and tobacco base. Bold, herbal and unmistakably of its era, it fills a room with dry, mossy warmth. Commanding and structured, a benchmark of the style.

Projection, risk and texture describe how a fragrance behaves in a room and on skin.

Warmth and sweetness are derived from composition and do not carry that caveat.
