Filth, launched in 2020 by Aaron Terence Hughes, is an audacious composition that challenges conventional fragrance norms with its bold and complex character. At the heart of this scent lies a rich leather accord that serves as the foundation for an animalic and musky blend. Dark chocolate and patchouli add depth and warmth to the composition, while gardenia and jasmine sambac bring a touch of floral sweetness that contrasts beautifully against the earthy undertones.

Application Tips
Filth is best applied sparingly; its dark chocolate and patchouli notes project strongly. Allow it to settle on your skin for at least half an hour before venturing out to ensure the full depth of its character is experienced. This fragrance pairs well with cooler temperatures, where the warmth of the leather and musk can be fully appreciated.
