The top notes arrive as a bright burst of mandarin orange and warm spices—cumin and coriander dance together in an opening that feels both airy and inviting. This refined citrus moment is clean and poised, drawing you in without overwhelming.
As the fragrance settles, tobacco and leather emerge at the heart, grounded by labdanum's subtle sweetness. The character deepens here, becoming more intimate and magnetic—a creamy, aromatic middle that speaks to quiet confidence.
The base unfolds with layered woods: agarwood and oud meet sandalwood and olibanum, creating a warm, incense-tinged foundation. This intimate skin-close trail lingers for 6–8 hours, unfolding slowly and revealing new facets in warmth. Year-round wearable, yet at its best in warm conditions where the woods bloom.
Tobacco Mandarin delivers 6–8 hours of sophisticated wear on skin with noticeable projection. Apply to pulse points for optimal diffusion and layering potential. Pairing with the Body Oil extends longevity beautifully. Perfect for autumn and winter evenings. HumanSafe™ Verified · IFRA Compliant · 100% Vegan & Cruelty-Free.
