Opus XIII - Silver Oud unisex

Scent story

To me this smells like a forest that does not want you there. Patchouli and cypriol open dark and rooty — damp soil, crushed leaves — with Virginia cedar standing over it all like tall cold trees. Then the oud Assam arrives, and it is not the sweet Dubai-mall oud. This is raw: smoky, leathery, with vanilla trying to soften edges that refuse to be softened. Birch tar and guaiac wood burn underneath, and the castoreum adds this animal warmth — like something wild breathing nearby in the dark. It is Stendhal's ambition bottled: beautiful, cold, and a little ruthless. You do not wear this to be liked. Not for beginners — beginners stay away.
