Amber Musk

Four materials in all: amber opens, musk takes over, ambergris and cedar close. A minimal construction, resting on the quality of its four materials alone.

Tuxedo

A green, peppery opening over a base of patchouli and ambergris. The smoked patchouli lends a dry depth, far from the sweet patchouli of gourmands.
