Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
Heart
- Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
- Spices Warm spice with no single spice named.
- Cinnamon Sweet heat. Reads festive, sometimes to a fault.
- Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.
Dry-down
- Saffron Leathery, medicinal and slightly metallic. The signature of modern niche.
- Oud Resinous, medicinal, barnyard-adjacent wood. The most expensive note in perfumery.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
