What it smells like
The Scent File profile
Opens with a sharp, almost acrid tobacco that softens quickly as leather edges in — not hide-and-saddle leather, but something smoother and slightly sweet. The heart is where it earns its name: tobacco deepens and darkens, amber adding warmth without going powdery. The dry-down is slow and generous, tonka bean and vanilla rounding everything into a thick, skin-close sweetness that lingers for hours. Projection is moderate; sillage is dense and intimate rather than room-filling — Built for cold nights, low lighting, and anyone who wants to smell expensive without explaining themselves.
