Launched in 2021, Diplomat by Brandy Designs is a Woody Aquatic fragrance for men crafted by perfumer Sayed Kashif Ali. The composition opens with sea notes and sea salt, creating an immediate sense of coastal freshness that contrasts beautifully with the warm spicy elements like bay leaf and spices. This interplay between marine and woody notes is further enriched by the presence of grapefruit and geranium in the heart, adding a citrusy brightness and floral complexity. The base notes of red amber and guaiac wood provide a grounding warmth, ensuring that Diplomat remains both fresh and enveloping throughout the day.
