by Vero Profumo
Naja by Vero Profumo is a luxuriously complex, neo-vintage leather scent centered around honeyed osmanthus, linden blossom, and tobacco. It opens with a vivid, effervescent burst of melon and lime-tobacco, giving it a refreshing, almost fruity-leathery character that feels both luminous and grounded. As it develops, the perfume evolves into a soft, powdery leather with a delicate balance of sweetness and dryness—Habanita meets Tabac Blond, but with a brighter, more floral complexity. The honey-husked osmanthus and linden blossom weave together seamlessly, adding a velvety, slightly medicinal creaminess that feels elegant and refined. The drydown settles into a subtle, lingering powdery musk with a hint of bitter green sapiness, creating a quiet but persistent presence that lingers well past four hours. It is unisex in tone, with a quiet sillage and a restrained yet evolving character that changes with wear. Though not a dramatic or bombastic scent, its depth lies in its texture—slow, fluid, and deeply sensual, shifting across different phases without losing coherence.
