Only The Brave

Amalfi lemon and mandarin snap bright and clean at first contact, then violet emerges with a green, slightly dusty quality. Virginia cedar and coriander add an herbal spine—crisp and grounding—as the composition settles. Styrax and benzoin bring warmth and subtle sweetness, while leather and French labdanum anchor the base with a resinous, slightly animalic depth. Amber wraps everything in soft opacity, the drydown revealing leather and warm resin against skin, fading to a whisper of vanilla-tinged amber.
