A warm, gourmand fragrance with creamy vanilla, sweet tonka bean, and a subtle smoky-spicy undertone from turmeric. It opens with a strong, slightly animalic or hay-like tonka bean burst, quickly settling into a soft, comforting vanillic drydown with lasting warmth and depth. The scent feels like a psychedelic blend of golden milk, incense, and camphorous sweetness, with a nuanced interplay of benzoin, amber, and spicy warmth that persists long after initial application. Most find it deeply cozy and perfect for winter or autumn, evoking imagery of firepit gatherings, warm drinks, and layered textiles. Some note a vague resemblance to Tom Ford’s Tobacco Vanille or Maison Margiela’s By the Fireplace, though reviewers emphasize it diverges in complexity and character. The sillage is moderate and intimate—noticeable on the skin but not overwhelming—and it clings well to clothing, especially in cooler weather. Though some claim it’s overly sweet or insufficiently spicy, it is widely regarded as a rich yet approachable gourmand with a smooth, elevated sweetness that avoids cloying. Whether you find it perfumed or confessional, it's seen as a versatile, mood-lifting winter staple that doesn’t fade quickly.
