All about this fragrance
Vibe check
An evening conversation stretches on after the room has quieted. Warm spices and sweet-edged tobacco suit this unhurried closeness, while leather gives the scent a worn-in texture. Its presence feels measured and tactile rather than expansive.
How to wear
The warming spice, tobacco and leather profile is well suited to cooler days and autumn evenings. Start with one or two sprays on skin: its intimate projection favors close contact rather than a broad trail. In warmer weather, keep application light so the sweetness remains restrained.
Who it’s for
For those drawn to tobacco, leather and woody spice, especially when warmth comes with a touch of sweetness. It suits a preference for tactile, close-wearing fragrances over bright freshness or a conspicuous scent trail.

The Silk Road | 丝绸之路’s concept
The Silk Road belongs to Chapter 3: Majestic China, a six-fragrance collection offering selective impressions of Chinese culture. Its concept follows the exchange of goods, stories and aspirations along historic trade routes, translated into warming spices, tobacco leaf and leather rather than a reconstruction of any particular historical scent.
Extra info
The name refers to the historic trade routes, not a silk accord: the official notes are spices, tobacco leaf, ginseng, leather and vetiver. The fragrance is also described by the brand as vegan and cruelty-free.
