Bergamot and black currant burst sharp and bright, tempered by mandarin's warm sweetness before tea leaf enters—dry, slightly astringent, grounding the composition. Red rose and freesia bloom softly around a crisp red apple, their floral notes neither perfumey nor thin. As it settles, leather and patchouli emerge with quiet intensity, anchored by tonka's vanilla warmth and white wood's clean, almost mineral edge. Musk wraps everything in a subtle second skin, neither sweet nor powdery, holding the leather and earth long after the top notes fade.
