Description
The story behind this fragrance
Black pepper snaps awake with mandarin's bright bite, then settles into supple leather—suede softened by saffron's dusty warmth. Haitian vetiver emerges beneath, earthy and grounding, its mineral root-like quality anchoring the leather's suppleness as heat softens the citrus. The drydown traces warm hide and damp grass, vetiver's subtle smokiness lingering as the suede fades to skin-close cedar and soil.
