Avant-Garde

Avant-Garde opens with bright bergamot and grapefruit that snap the air clean and crisp. The heart pivots sharply—cacao and tobacco smoke drift through, grounding the citrus in something darker, almost smoky-sweet, while incense curls above it all. As it settles, tonka bean's vanilla warmth spreads beneath Russian leather's dry, aged grip, anchored by ambergris's salty-animalic depth. The fragrance pulls between luminous and shadowed, citrus brightness tethered to leather and smoke.
