Empire Intense

Lavender and bergamot crack open with a whisper of cardamom spice, immediately warm and slightly peppery. Violet emerges soft beneath, held steady by geranium's green, leafy spine—elemi resin threading through with a subtle, almost woody brightness. The base settles into amber's golden hum, vetiver's dry grassy root, and cashmeran's creamy, almost skin-like softness. Empire Intense unfolds from sharp herbals into a softer, more intimate middle, finally resolving to warm amber and earth that clings close.
