The rugged sophistication of a city park at dusk, where the scent of fresh earth mingles with the warmth of leather upholstery and the subtle sweetness of rose.

The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2021 by DS&Durga, Dylan is an Oriental Floral fragrance crafted by David Seth Moltz. It opens with the warmth of red wine and fresh spicy notes like red chilli pepper, creating a striking contrast before settling into a heart of hyacinth and rose. The composition rounds out with leather, sand, and green accords that evoke a sense of earthy elegance, making it a compelling blend of modernity and tradition.

How to wear it

This fragrance blooms gradually, so applying it closer to skin allows you to experience its full depth. One or two sprays are sufficient as the warm spicy notes project well and the base notes develop slowly over time.
