Shem

Turkish rose blooms sharp and spiced with cardamom as Shem unfolds, geranium adding a green, peppery whisper. The heart deepens into amber's warm resin and the earthy, almost smoky grip of cypriol oil—a scent like leather worn soft—while osmanthus floats through with honeyed florals. Vetiver anchors the base with dry, rooted grip, leather becoming more pronounced, elemi's subtle citrus-balsam lingering as the whole thing settles into something simultaneously dusty and luminous.
