About

Top notes are Cardamom, Red Thyme and Bergamot; middle notes are Opoponax, Lavender, Patchouli and Geranium; base notes are Amber, Vanilla, Tonka Bean, Sandalwood and Musk. “This feeling of an ancient city, but with a freshness, a modernity. An old luxury and a new confidence. Sometimes clichés are in the popular imagination for all the right reasons. This is the meeting of two continents andtwocultures.Coffee, creaminess. Leather. Suede. Spices. Incense. Waking up in Moda, crossing the Bosphorus and a balmy night in Karaköy. An ambery, woody, spicy fragrance. A fresh aromatic head, with notes of bergamot, cardamom, red thyme. A woody, aromatic heart, with lavender absolute, Egyptian geranium essence, patchouli heart and sweet myrrh (opoponax) essence. And basenotes of sandalwood, vanilla, tonka bean, amber and musks” — press release of the brand.
