Description
The story behind this fragrance
Pink pepper and cardamom pierce through first, sharp and warming, joined by mango's soft stone-fruit sweetness. The heart settles into papyrus—pale, almost dusty—wrapped in karo karounde's earthy spice and incense smoke that hangs like haze over sand. Vetiver and patchouli ground the base, dark and rooted, while benzoin's resinous warmth and myrrh's dry bitterness deepen into skin, leaving behind an arid, smoky amber where spice has worn to earth.
