Blood

Nigella's peppery bite opens sharp and green, quickly deepened by damask rose's winey sweetness. Cloves and coffee arrive in the heart, their warm spice and bitter earth settling into labdanum's resinous amber. Blood develops a dark, honeyed density—almost animalic—as oud's smoky woodiness and cedar's dry structure anchor the composition into something grounded and hypnotic, the rose fading until only clove-kissed agarwood and cool, splintered cedar remain.
