Performance & Scent Profile
-
Opening: The scent opens with suede and licorice, wrapped in the freshness of Sicilian mandarin—leather-toned yet bright.
-
Heart: Violet leaf gives a green/ozonic lift while rum and spices (cumin, coriander) build richness and complexity. ([turn0search15]
-
Dry Down: A deep bourbon vanilla base softens the leather and suede edges, bringing warmth and a slightly gourmand finish.
-
Projection & Longevity: Early projection is moderate to strong; many users report fairly good longevity (6-8 hours and more on fabrics). ([turn0search2]turn0search12]
-
Overall Vibe: A modern, refined evening fragrance that bridges leather/leather-oriental territory with a sweeter, more accessible helix.
