Fragrance notes Seductive and directOlfactive Family: Woody Amber Top Notes: Fresh Orange, Pink Pepper & White Freesia Mid Notes: Myrrh, Cistus Labdanum & Cypriol Heart Base Notes: Vanilla Bean, Vetiver Java & Cedarwood Inspiration Hwy 190 is our celebration of the drive through awe-inspiring Death Valley. The fragrance opens with bright shining notes of Pink Pepper, Fresh Oranges, and White Freesia that gradually give way to the dry incense-like notes of Myrrh and Cypriol Heart mixed with the smokiness of Javanese and Haitian Vetiver, settling into the elegant dry down of Virginian Cedar. Like its namesake, Hwy 190 is vast, haunting, and likely to be a truly unique experience for you.

He defines himself as, “Iranian in education, and German in organization.” With poignant memories of growing up amongst fields of roses, where friends distilled rose oil, Hamid fought hard to become a perfumer and knows success can be taken for granted.Merati-Keshani's signature style of creating strong, long-lasting fragrances is defined by what he calls "overdosing. By using far more of a signature ingredient than what one would normally expect from other perfumers, he creates scents that truly stand out from the crowd."A Note from the Perfumer:"I created Calle Ocho for Fulton & Roark, which is a fragrance that is for someone who looks for original scents that make a mark. The Firmenich Naturals Together ingredients used in this creation – such as cinnamon from Sri Lanka, and Australian Sandalwood – are not only strong in scent but are also sourced responsibly and have a positive social impact."
