Ripe plum and peach over a spiced floral heart, all sinking into leather, oakmoss, amber and musk. Dark, fruity and animalic, it carries the daring depth of a true vintage. Sensual and complex, projecting with a smoky, resinous pull.

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.
