Black Animal

Black Animal opens with a bright caramel warmth and cool mint that immediately softens Italian mandarin's citrus edge. The heart deepens into an earthy, almost smoky envelope—Virginia cedar and black violet weave together with herbal sage, grounding the initial sweetness. Guaiac wood emerges dense and resinous in the drydown, anchored by Indonesian patchouli leaf's green, leafy warmth and benzoin's creeping vanilla-amber undertone. Warmth and herbalism settle into dry, woody skin.
