What it smells like
The Scent File profile
Bergamot opens clean and brief before iris slides in — cool, slightly powdery, rooted rather than floral. The heart is where it earns its keep: oud and labdanum build a resinous, leathery warmth that reads as genuinely luxurious without tipping into medicinal. Vanilla and ambroxan smooth everything into a skin-close musky sweetness on the dry-down, with sandalwood lending quiet creaminess underneath. Projection is moderate and well-mannered; sillage is intimate, not a room-filler — this one works close range. — Cold-weather evenings, boardroom-to-dinner, for someone who wants depth without aggression.

“About 90% identical. After 20-30 minutes the opening fades and they smell almost identical, I honestly can't tell the difference. LB just leans sweeter on vanilla.”
