Spice hits first, dry, dark, faintly smoked, the kind of opening that doesn't ease in so much as announce itself. Spices strike hard and early, sharp and resinous, before settling into a heart of leather worn soft and warm, like a jacket that's seen years of use. The base holds it all down with woody notes, dense, smoldering, built to last through a long night rather than fade by dinner. For the man who doesn't need to raise his voice to command a room, worn to formal dinners, late meetings, or anywhere a quiet kind of authority is called for. Best suited to fall and winter nights, when its 8-10 hour trail has room to unfold. Fills a room early, then holds warm against the skin across an 8-10 hour wear. 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 Woody collection.
