Uncut Gem by Frederic Malle opens sharp and warm together: ginger and bergamot cut through angelica, nutmeg and mandarin orange. Vetiver, olibanum, leather and magnolia carry the heart, giving it a smoky, resinous edge rather than anything soft. The base settles into amber, cedar, labdanum and musk, dry and a touch animalic underneath. Released in 2022, it is mostly worn by men who want an evening scent with some grit to it, suited to work as much as a night out. Voters keep it for autumn and winter, wearing it into the evening and night. Most of the longevity vote goes to long-lasting, and sillage settles close to moderate rather than loud. A 3ml decant gets you through a full working week, plenty of time to know if it is worth the bottle.
