Deer

Deer opens with a tingly, almost medicinal burst of mint and clary sage, grounded immediately by warm cumin and tobacco smoke. Coffee and roasted pistachio arrive in sharp relief, creating an earthy, almost dusty opening that feels herbaceous rather than sweet. As it settles, hay and patchouli emerge—faintly green, faintly animalic—while cedarwood brings structure and dry warmth. The base anchors everything with soft leather and musk, a tender animal presence that never overwhelms. Deer feels lived-in, skin-close, caught between the herb garden and the hunt.
