Composition & Character
How It Wears
A Signature Fragrance
Leather
Leather is more than just an aroma; it’s a texture, a memory of old books or vintage leather goods. Its scent can be earthy and warm, sometimes tinged with the subtle smokiness of tanning processes, evoking a sense of heritage and craftsmanship.
Myrrh
Myrrh, harvested from the sap of trees native to Somalia and Yemen, exudes a complex aroma of balsamic sweetness intertwined with earthy, slightly smoky undertones. This resin has been valued for millennia not only for its fragrance but also for its medicinal properties, making it a cornerstone in both perfumery and ritual.
Musk
Musk, once sourced from the musk deer and now often recreated synthetically, offers an earthy, slightly sweet aroma reminiscent of skin. Its versatility allows it to blend seamlessly into various fragrance families, from oriental to woody, enhancing their depth without overpowering them.
