The transformation of ingredients through fire, smoke, and time. Black pepper is crushed, chestnuts are roasted, and sea salt and crispy seaweed are transformed over open heat. At its heart, slow-brewed fermented tea unfolds with umami richness. Incense and myrrh deepen the composition with warm resinous notes, while clove leaf adds vibrant spice. Mineral facets give way to smoke — charcoal, hinoki, vetiver — before resolving in an amber-softened patchouli.
Perfumer: Christian Provenzano
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
This is a fragrance for close, low-lit spaces where smoke, spice and warmth can unfold without rushing. It suits a composed presence: dry, textured, slightly austere at first, then quietly enveloping as the resinous base settles in.
How to wear
Best in cool weather, when its smoky woods and resins can breathe without becoming heavy. One or two sprays are enough; on skin it opens peppery and mineral, then grows warmer and more ambery in the air, with a dry, lingering trail.
Who it’s for
For wearers who like smoky woods, savory nuances and a darker, more textured style of perfumery. It will appeal to those drawn to incense, roasted notes and mineral dryness rather than sweet or transparent compositions.
