Ibrahim Al QurashiChasing Waves
Cool spice and dry wood balanced by a whisper of vanilla
Bergamot and sharp black pepper strike first, cutting through the air with a bright, bracing chill. As the initial heat subsides, aromatic lavender and cardamom soften the edges, leading into a heart of cinnamon that hums with a quiet, dry warmth. The foundation is structural—grounded in cedarwood and vetiver, yet pulled back from total dryness by the creamy inclusion of tonka bean. It wears close to the skin, trading heavy projection for a smooth, powdery trail that lingers steadily through the day.
