Description
The story behind this fragrance
Paithani opens with a sharp, peppery warmth—nutmeg and cardamom kindle heat across skin—before softening into a creamy, almost tea-like middle where mate meets rose petals steeped in milk. The leather emerges gradually beneath, earthy and supple, as labdanum and amberwood deepen the composition into something intimate and worn. Cedar dries the base to a clean, woody finish, the spice memory fading until leather and resinous amber anchor everything to skin.
