A splash of dark rum against bitter orange and pink pepper, the kind of amber that announces itself in a wood-paneled room before you've said a word. It opens loud and bright: rum, olibanum, and bitter orange cut through with cardamom, pink pepper, ginger, bergamot, and grapefruit. The heart settles into something plush, dried fruits and white tobacco wrapped in sandalwood, saffron, tuberose, osmanthus, jasmine, and orris. It closes on a golden, resinous base of tonka bean, vanilla, myrrh, labdanum, patchouli, musk, cedar, and vetiver, a trail that lingers for hours after the room has emptied. Built for those who dress for the occasion rather than the weather, a black-tie dinner, a late drink by the fire, a winter evening where the amber does the talking. Unisex, formal, and unmistakably after dark. Projects boldly for the first hours before deepening into an 8-10 hour trail. Hand-poured in small batches in Richardson, TX as an Extrait de Parfum, 30% fragrance oils versus the 15-20% typical of an Eau de Parfum, so a little goes a long way. Reach for it on opening nights, private dinners, and the kind of evenings that live in memory. Explore more from our Oriental collection.
