Created by Nazir Ajmal, Carbon is a Woody Floral Musk fragrance that embodies the intricate balance between fresh and warm elements. The composition begins with a bright burst of citruses and lavender, which soon gives way to the velvety richness of violet and the earthy warmth of woods and patchouli. At its core, Carbon is about contrast — the crispness of the opening notes contrasts beautifully with the powdery, musky base that grounds it.
