The wine has gone to everyone's head, the candles have burned low, and someone leans in a little too close. Before a word is said, a bright pull of black currant curls through the air, sweet and a little dangerous, and the whole room seems to tilt toward you. It opens tart and playful, black currant, white peach, litchi, and blood orange trading off in quick, glinting bursts. As the fruit settles, pimento and pepper bring a low simmer of heat while rose and jasmine soften the edges into something plush and unmistakably feminine. The finish is where it turns serious: vanilla, sandalwood, patchouli, cedar, benzoin, and tonka bean fold together into a warm, resinous skin-scent that lingers for hours, half sweet, half smoke. For the woman who arrives fashionably late and leaves an impression that outlasts the party. Built for fall and winter, from a candlelit dinner straight into whatever the night decides to become, equally at home at 6pm and 2am. Projects softly for the first two hours before settling into a 6-8 hour skin scent. 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 valentine tables, stolen weekends, and evenings that end too soon. Made for our Fall selection.
