Notes, explained
Opening
- Cardamom Cool, aromatic spice with a eucalyptus lift. Smells expensive.
- Pink Pepper Fizzy, rosy and bright. Adds sparkle without heat.
- Paprika Warm, dusty red spice. Adds heat without sharpness.
Heart
- Ylang-Ylang Banana-custard floral. Rich, tropical and slightly rubbery.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Tolu Balsam Warm, sweet, slightly cinnamon resin. Rich and rounded.
Dry-down
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
- Amberwood Dry synthetic warmth, sharper than amber. Everywhere in modern masculines.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Benzoin Sweet balsamic resin. Vanilla-adjacent but drier.
