What it smells like
The story
20 MARS 2022 by Rundholz is a deeply layered, intense chypre with a pronounced incense and woody character, built around olibanum, cypriol oil, and spicy pepper. The opening is boldly confrontational—dominated by raw pepper, antiseptic heat, and medicinal-sweet notes that form an immediate and visceral impression, with saffron and cinnamon adding sharpness. After the initial burst, the fragrance settles into a rich, smoky base of resinous labdanum, aged wood, morphine-like tonka, vanilla, and castoreum, creating a complex and dramatic olfactory journey. Despite its complexity, the scent evolves into something more intimate and enveloping on the skin, akin to a Buddhist temple or ancient apothecary—warm, dusty, and deeply atmospheric. Its performance is exceptional with lasting sillage and long duration, particularly well-suited for winter or quiet, reflective moments.
