Bergamot gives a bright start, then cumin, myrrh and tonka bean take over in the heart, with a soft sweetness laid over the spice and resin. The base builds a woody floor from cedarwood, gaiac wood and vetiver, while leather and patchouli add an animalic, earthy weight. Benzoin and musk round off the harder edges. Overall it reads dry, warm and smoky.
Meo Fusciuni Narcotico and Initio Divine Attraction have a close profile.
