David Seth Moltz of DS&Durga crafted 1538 Rheims as a Floral Woody Musk fragrance that embodies the essence of earth and elegance. The composition opens with powdery and musky notes, providing a soft and comforting base before transitioning into a heart of iris and violet, which adds an intriguing floral depth. The earthy patchouli and woody accords in the base bring warmth and complexity, grounding the overall scent. This fragrance is unisex and reflects the brand's commitment to blending global essences into distinctive olfactory experiences.

Application Tips
Given its strong sillage and moderate longevity, one or two sprays are sufficient to make a statement. The fragrance blooms best close to the skin, so apply it on pulse points for maximum impact. It reads better in cooler weather when the musk and earthy notes come into their own.
