Cardamom opens it cool and a touch peppery, more restrained than sweet. It fades slowly into amberwood, dry and woody rather than dense, so the fragrance reads understated rather than loud. Launched in 2026, it's aimed at men who want something quiet and a touch broody rather than an obvious statement scent. Voters keep it for autumn and winter, worn mostly in the evening and after dark. The vote on longevity leans long-lasting. Sillage, most wearers agree, stays moderate, so it rarely demands attention. A 10ml decant is enough to wear it through a run of cold nights before you decide. ## Decant sizes - 3ml: €8.10 - 10ml: €24.75 Ships within 1 working day ## Frequently asked questions ### Shipping and returns We ship across the EU.
