The crisp morning air in a metropolitan park, where green leaves mingle with the subtle hints of leather and floral notes from nearby gardens.

The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2018 by Allsaints, Metal Wave is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance that balances sharp aromatic and spicy notes with the warmth of leather and musk. The composition opens with a green freshness and a subtle floral touch before settling into a woody base that feels both grounding and modern. This unisex scent captures the essence of contemporary elegance, making it a versatile choice for any occasion.

How to wear it

Metal Wave has a long-lasting base that blooms over time. Apply it to pulse points for a warm, woody trail throughout the day. The fresh spicy top notes are best experienced close to skin rather than across a room.
