On the Road Timothy Han Edition
by Timothy Han Edition Perfumes
On the Road Timothy Han Edition is a smoky, balsamic leather fragrance with a strong woody and aromatic core, opening with a sharp, citrussy-green burst reminiscent of hot asphalt, tire rubber, and galbanum. It evolves into a complex, resinous scent dominated by patchouli, guaiac wood, and birch tar, with a gradual shift toward a sweet, balsamic dry down enhanced by vanilla, tonka, and benzoin. The character is both earthy and refined—like a well-worn leather jacket left by a campfire, smelling faintly of smoke and moss, with a lingering, almost imperceptible sweetness. Perfume wearers describe it as rich, layered, and quietly captivating, especially in autumn and winter. Its sillage is moderate and projection drops significantly after the first hour, making it most intimate in the final stages. The opening is dramatic and bold, not for those seeking subtlety or light scents.
