Fall Into Stars
by Strangelove NYC
Fall Into Stars by Strangelove NYC is a deeply layered, woody-oud fragrance that unfolds with a rich, animalic intensity balanced by warm honeyed sweetness and a natural floral depth from narcissus. The scent opens with a potent, medicinal oud note that carries a briny, barnyard quality softened by pink pepper, vanilla, and sweet floral facets, creating an upfront impression that is both bold and complex. Over time, the composition settles into a luscious, leathery base where rosewood, amber, and creamy vanilla intertwine, producing a sensual, powdery warmth that lingers on the skin. This fragrance is best experienced at night, where its projection remains strong and long-lasting, and its quiet elegance makes it suitable for special occasions or moments of personal indulgence. The overall effect is one of sophisticated decadence—a modern oud scent that harmonizes natural complexity with refined artistry.
