DS & Durga

Bowmakers

Bowmakers by DS & Durga is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It moves into amber and cypress and dries down to cedarwood and oakmoss. Expect around 6 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.

Notes, explained

Heart

• Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
• Cypress Cool, green, resinous conifer. Sharp and clean.

Dry-down

• Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
• Oakmoss Damp forest floor. Bitter, green and the backbone of every chypre.
