Application Tips

Apply this fragrance in layers for maximum impact. The aromatic top notes are fleeting, so a second application can help prolong their presence. Given its warm and earthy base, it pairs well with colder weather, where the leather and woody tones feel particularly comforting.

The story behind the bottle.

The quiet strength of a well-worn leather jacket, where the subtle nuances of rose and patchouli intertwine with the ruggedness of leather and wood.
