Crop 2022
A limited The Crop edition, Crop 2022 weaves cool cardamom and mint into warm cinnamon, clove and nutmeg over Kalimantan oud, with roasted Arabic coffee providing a dark, bittersweet backdrop. The result is a refined, woody-gourmand spicy oud that feels like spiced coffee in a softly smoky wooden room.
Scent Development and Character
Crop 2022 opens with a vivid contrast of cool, aromatic spice and green freshness, cardamom and mint lifting a darker mélange of cloves and assorted spices around softly smoky Kalimantan oud. As it develops, the heart warms into a gourmand-spicy core where cinnamon, clove and nutmeg wrap the composition with powdery warmth and gentle sweetness, while the coffee theme gradually emerges as a roasted, slightly cacao-like bitterness rather than sugary latte, sitting behind the spices. The base settles into a smooth, woody-spicy trail with oud adding restrained smoky wood and the coffee accord lingering like the aroma of beans after brewing, creating a nuanced, dark, and cozy yet refined oud-coffee blend.
Who It Is For and When to Wear It
Crop 2022 suits cooler weather and evening wear, where its dark coffee and spice nuances feel comforting yet polished, working well for intimate settings, sophisticated casual looks, or dressed-up occasions that can carry a distinctive oud-coffee signature. It can be worn by anyone who enjoys rich, gourmand-leaning woods but is likely too intense for hot, sunny daytime or strictly office-safe use. The heavy oud, roasted coffee and warm spice profile makes Crop 2022 especially suited to autumn and winter, when its comforting darkness and warmth resonate with cooler air; it can work on cooler spring days but is generally too dense and heavy for hot summer use. Sillage is Reports and the concentrated, spicy-gourmand composition indicate a moderate to above-average sillage that forms a noticeable aura in the first hours, then sits closer to the wearer while still discernible to those nearby. Longevity is Community impressions and the rich oud-coffee-spice structure suggest solid longevity, often lasting most of the day on skin (around 8 hours or more) without becoming overwhelming, with a gradual softening into a woody-coffee veil.
