Side by side
Comparing the originals — price, breadth, listed-note depth.
Opens with a sharp metallic grapefruit and blood mandarin that burns off quickly, giving way to the real story: a warm cinnamon-leather heart that smells expensive and deliberate. Amber anchors the dry-down into something almost edible without tipping fully gourmand — the leather keeps it grounded. Projection is loud in the first two hours, then settles into a close, skin-hugging sillage that lingers. The mint is subtle, just enough to keep the opening from feeling heavy — Fall and winter nights out, for someone who wants to be noticed before they speak.
Opens with a sharp, slightly tart raspberry cut through by metallic saffron — not sweet, more like blood and spice. Thyme adds a dry herbal edge before the heart pivots hard into leather: raw, almost animalic, the kind that smells like hide rather than a jacket. Jasmine softens without feminizing it. The dry-down settles into a warm amber-olibanum base that anchors the leather for hours. Projection is assertive but never screaming; sillage lingers close and dark — Built for cold weather and anyone who wants to smell expensive and slightly dangerous.
