Scent Development and Character

A focused spicy-woody composition built around Madagascan black pepper, wrapped in warm nutmeg and clean cedar for a linear, dry and elegant effect.

Who It Is For and When to Wear It

Best in cooler weather or temperate climates for day or evening, from smart-casual to formal; its dry, linear spiciness suits confident, minimalist styles and indoor settings. Most suited to autumn and winter wear, with possible use in early spring, while generally less ideal for hot summer conditions. Sillage is Projects moderately in the first hours, then settles closer to the skin as a dry, discreet spicy-woody trail. Longevity is Estimated to have solid longevity, with the pepper-cedar accord remaining noticeable on skin for much of the day.
