Labdanum Dusk
Golden light falls through arabesque arches at dusk. The resinous warmth of labdanum envelops the green freshness of cedar leaf and the spice of saffron, then sinks into the deep forest darkness of oud. On skin, it slowly melds, leaving a sweet trail of vanilla and tonka bean that whispers of quiet sensuality.

About This Fragrance
Labdanum Dusk is an amber woody eau de parfum that modernizes labdanum, a resin used since ancient times in incense and perfume. Verdant cedar leaf and precious saffron open the composition, while the heart elegantly unfolds with moist cypriol, dry cedarwood, and rich patchouli. The base layers resinous labdanum with sublime vanilla and tonka bean, and the signature note of oud lends a majestic depth.
Scent Profile
On first spray, the green freshness of cedar leaf and the spicy radiance of saffron rise. Soon, earthy cypriol, dry cedarwood, and deep patchouli layer together, creating an oriental chiaroscuro. Over time, the resinous warmth of labdanum and the smoky depth of oud come to the fore, melting into a sweet trail of vanilla and tonka bean.
Who It Is For and When to Wear It
Labdanum Dusk suits a confident, enigmatic individual. It is ideal for autumn and winter evenings, special dinners, cultural events, or quiet nights. It complements both formal attire and casual knits, enhancing an inner richness.
Season is inferred from composition and published context rather than an official restriction. It is especially approachable in Autumn, Winter; sillage is estimated at 7/10 and longevity at 8/10. Skin, climate, and application affect both.
