Composition
Michel Roudnitska's dark, spice-drenched oriental that pointedly spares the vanilla in favor of pure spice. Bitter orange, rose and geranium open onto a blazing heart of clove, nutmeg, cinnamon and pepper, grounded by sandalwood, patchouli and cedar. Exotic, elegant and quietly avant-garde.
To me this smells like bitter orange, rose and geranium — then the spices ignite: clove, nutmeg, cinnamon and pepper blazing dark and exotic. Sandalwood, patchouli and cedar ground it in woody depth, vanilla barely whispering underneath. It pointedly spares the sweetness for pure, elegant fire. It is Michel Roudnitska's dark oriental: exotic, elegant, and quietly avant-garde. Beginner-friendly — a spice-lover's dream, warm and easy.
