Alpha

Violet leaf's green snap opens Alpha with black pepper's bite, while palo santo smoke curls underneath—austere, almost medicinal. The heart settles into worn leather and cade oil's tar-like warmth, rose threading through papyrus's papery whisper. Ebony tree and guaiac wood anchor everything in dark, resinous wood, labdanum's amber sweetness the only softness before the whole thing fades into incense ash and mineral quiet.
