A citrus opening and a base of eight materials. That imbalance is deliberate: the whole fragrance is in its base.
— The top is clear and short — bergamot, mandarin, lemon — and it does not last.
— The heart makes the transition with cedar, jasmine and pineapple. Pineapple in the middle of a woody is an unusual choice: it brings juice and a tart edge that keeps the fragrance from turning dark too quickly.
— Then the base settles in for the evening: tobacco, leather, rum, amber, cypress, cashmere wood, musk and patchouli. Eight materials, all of them warm or dry. The tobacco and the leather dominate, the rum brings the warm sugar, the cypress a resinous, green note.
An evening fragrance, built like an armchair: you settle into it.
Autumn, winter, evenings. Long wear, strong projection.

A salted caramel, and it is the salt that makes it interesting — announced in the first note and taken up again in the base.
— The opening is the most original part: sea salt, lemon, pink pepper. Mineral and citrus where you expected sugar. It is pleasantly disorienting.
— The heart carries on in the marine register: jasmine, seaweed, bay leaf. Seaweed is a rare material in perfumery — it smells of iodine, of the beach at low tide, of damp mineral. The bay leaf adds a green, aromatic note, almost culinary.
— And it is only in the base that the dessert arrives: caramel, brown sugar, cedar, and the salt again. That is when you understand the construction: the fragrance moves from the beach to the kitchen, and the salt is the thread that links the two.
Who it is for: someone who likes gourmands but finds they lack an idea. This one has one.
Spring, summer, daytime. Average longevity, moderate projection.

Whisky, announced in the first note and held to the end. It is one of the few fragrances in the catalogue built on that accord.
— Bourbon whisky in perfumery is a warm, sweet, lightly smoky note — the smell of oak and burnt sugar. Paired with orange blossom, it opens on something rich and a little syrupy, but never cloying.
— The heart goes off in another direction: incense, pepper, aldehydes. The incense brings dry, smoky resin, the pepper the bite, and the aldehydes that soapy, slightly metallic sparkle of the great classic fragrances. It is an austere heart after a gourmand opening, and the contrast works.
— The base returns to warmth: brown sugar, leather, and woods the house does not specify. Leather and brown sugar together give that impression of warm leather and a quiet lounge.
Who it is for: someone looking for a fragrance with a story.
Autumn, winter, evenings. Long wear, sustained projection.
