Launched in 2011 by Tauer Perfumes and crafted by Andy Tauer, Pentachords Auburn is a complex Oriental Spicy fragrance that seamlessly blends white floral and tobacco accords with warm spices, woody notes, and sweet amber. The opening hints at citrus, providing a bright contrast to the rich tobacco and cinnamon that follow, creating an intriguing tension between freshness and warmth. This composition feels like it was designed for those who appreciate depth and nuance in their scents.

Application Tips
Apply two sprays initially — the citrus opening is bright but fades quickly. The tobacco and cinnamon notes will emerge after about an hour and continue to evolve throughout the day. This fragrance reads better close to skin than in a room, so avoid over-application for best results.
