Composition
A smoky, mystical iris fragrance where davana, pink pepper and bergamot open into an iris and sambac heart over incense, myrrh, patchouli and guaiac woods. Dark and meditative, it is Ormonde Jayne's most brooding creation.
To me this smells like an old library with tall teak shelves, davana, pink pepper, coriander seed and bergamot drifting through dust lit by a single window. Give it a few minutes and iris, jasmine sambac, pimento and bay soften, rich without shouting. And the jasmine sambac never quite leaves, rich without shouting. By evening all that remains is incense, myrrh, patchouli, Chinese cedar and guaiac wood, like a memory you can't place. This is what a warm kitchen and an open door would smell like if it had a perfume. Beginner-friendly — an easy first step into this style.
