The story behind the bottle.
Perception by Spirit Of Kings was launched in 2022 and crafted by perfumer Christian Provenzano. This unisex fragrance opens with a fresh spicy accord that includes birch and thyme, creating an immediate sense of crispness and clarity. As the composition develops, it evolves into a warm and smoky base, featuring leather and amber notes. The inclusion of ylang-ylang and jasmine adds a subtle sweetness to the mix, balancing out the earthy and woody undertones.
Apply Perception with two sprays to the pulse points. The fresh spicy top notes are vibrant but fleeting, so allow a few minutes for the rich leather and amber base to fully emerge. It’s best worn in cooler weather when the warm undertones can truly shine.
