Black Metal

Black Metal opens with bright citrus snap—elemi resin and bergamot cutting clean, lemon sharp—before dark florals bloom underneath. The heart deepens into black rose and mahonial, shadowed by davana's honeyed warmth. As it settles, leather and patchouli ground the composition while amber and tonka bean add a soft, almost sweet weight, creating tension between shadow and skin-warmth that lingers without sweetness overwhelming the edge.
