Mon Nom est Rouge

Cumin's warm dust opens sharply against pink pepper's bite, while palisander rosewood and geranium soften the spice into something floral and green. Incense smoke drifts through, carrying elemi's resinous brightness. Turkish rose blooms in the heart, threaded with cardamom and cinnamon—ginger adds a slow burn beneath. The base settles into amber and musk, tonka's vanilla sweetness braiding with white tobacco's dry leaf, sandalwood's creamy grain, and patchouli's earth. Cedar cuts clean through the warmth while labdanum anchors it all, leaving amber, musk, and a whisper of vanilla tobacco lingering dry on skin.
