Use Abuse

Use Abuse opens with a burst of mandarin's sharp sweetness against tuberose's creamy, almost indolic white florals—a tense, electric clash. The heart softens into jasmine sambac and peony, their lush petals tempered by smoky incense that lends an almost liturgical weight. As it settles, sandalwood and opoponax create a warm, honeyed base while musk grounds everything in skin-close softness. There's an edge throughout—beauty pushed just past comfort, sweetness laced with smoke.
