The Library Collection Opus IV

Grapefruit and mandarin burst open with sharp coriander, a bright, almost herbal citrus that catches the throat before settling into something warmer. Through the heart, cardamom and caraway bring a spiced earthiness, rounded by rose and violet leaf's green, slightly dusty florals—elemi adding a resinous whisper, rose hip a subtle tartness. The base emerges slowly: incense smoke curling underneath, labdanum's amber-sweet depth anchoring musk that stays close to skin, intimate and powdery, until only warm resin and soft spice remain.
