Staccato by Miller Harris, launched in 2024 and crafted by perfumer Karine Vinchon Spehner, is a bold composition that marries fresh and warm spices with the rich depth of leather and tobacco. Opening with ginger, cinnamon, and cardamom, it captures an immediate sense of vibrancy and warmth. The heart introduces saffron, jasmine, rose, and honey, creating a luxurious blend that balances sweetness with floral complexity. The base notes of cedarwood, cade oil, benzoin, and ambergris anchor the fragrance in earthy, smoky depth, making it feel both contemporary and lasting.

Application Tips
Apply Staccato sparingly at first — the fresh spice notes can be quite strong. Allow it to develop over time; the tobacco and leather base will emerge after about an hour, providing a rich warmth that lasts throughout the day.

The story behind the bottle.
The crisp click of heels on a city sidewalk as dusk falls, the air filled with a blend of spicy aromas from street vendors and the subtle smokiness of passing cars.
