as emotions go

As Emotions Go depicts living powerfully in accordance with one’s feelings. Kilesa uses oud and ginger to evoke a buffalo that cannot be bound by anyone. Bright citrus and green pine lead through flowers and herbs towards deeper woods and leather, giving the idea a forceful outline.

Orange, pine needles, mandarin and ginger open the composition. Neroli, rose, spike lavender, green tea, narcissus and galbanum form the heart, bringing floral richness and green aromatic detail. Oud, black musk, labdanum, leather and sandalwood build the base. Ginger’s bite and the leafy notes keep a clear contrast around the fuller woods and resins.

It suits an afternoon outing when a bolder combination of citrus, herbs and dark woods feels right. The rounded 50 mL clear-glass bottle carries a black cap, with the fragrance name printed directly on the front.
