Scent Development and Character

A spicy-leathery aromatic-woody fragrance built around frozen absinthe and incense, wrapped in rose and neroli, then deepened by burnt sugar, saffron, patchouli, and myrrh over a warm, smoky base of leather, vetiver, ambergris, and musk.

Who It Is For and When to Wear It

Editorial estimate: With its spicy-leathery depth and smoky sweetness, Dear Karma suits evening wear, reflective moments, and cooler weather, pairing well with tailored looks or dark, artistic casual styles. Best suited to autumn and winter, with possible use on cool spring evenings for those who enjoy deeper, spicy-leathery fragrances. Sillage is Editorial estimate: Sillage is moderately strong, creating a noticeable aura without becoming overpowering, especially in enclosed or cooler environments. Longevity is Editorial estimate: Longevity is above average for an eau de parfum, typically lasting most of a day on skin, with deeper notes (leather, ambergris, myrrh) lingering into the late drydown.
