Character & Feel
-
Vibe: Dramatic, mystical, smoky, and expressive — it feels like a bold incense perfume with a modern twist.
-
Transition: The opening spice softens into a denser, more resinous core; the florals (rose, mimosa) appear subtly, shaded by incense and myrrh.
-
Dry-down: The base gives warmth and depth; the woods and resins linger with richness and persistence.
Performance & Projection
-
Longevity: Strong — reported to last 6+ hours and more on many wearers
-
Sillage / Projection: Moderate to strong, at least in the early phases; in the dry-down it becomes more intimate but still noticeable.
-
Best Seasons & Occasions:
• Cooler months (fall, winter) suit it better given its warmth, spice, and resinous depth.
• Evening wear, special occasions, or moments where you want to stand out with something rich and bold.
