Amazing blend of blood orange and timur pepper in the opening is strong and bold the fruit is oppulent is not so much juicy but dark and mysterious and adding that pepper that is very prominent will give the first minutes a green type of nuance to the fragance with the spicy aspect. So the top notes will give a strong dry blood orange note with some fresh green pepper and a noticeable white pepper accord. Then the magic starts to unfold with the Clove, it is a very strong note that could choke your olfactory senses in a good way you will find this mixture with the nutmeg and cinnamon that makes it alluring and similar to anise seeds or those old anise round candies. While this is happening you can get some of the tobacco rounded with the patchouli probably grounded the caramel because you will definitely smell the tobacco leaf but is subtle and sweet but cozy and warming. The patchouli is herbal a little bit medicinal but is so in the background that is almost not noticeable. When you get to the base you definitely will get the strong oud it is dry and very refined nothing scratchy about it the perfect woody and smoky oud with the vanilla accord that is dusty and tone down in its sweetness making it more welcoming this accord.
Then in the drydown you will experience this nice honeyed tobacco leaf with some burnt caramel note going back and forth with some powdery vanilla with a woody/smoky oud blend.
Truly a distinct and elegant perfume.
It has a mark in the perfume industry by setting boundaries of what imagination could bring in this modern era. Blessings for Brandon and Terri Jensen and their company.
