Raw tobacco and dark rum for nights that refuse to settle
It hits with the sharp sting of Jamaican rum and black pepper, immediately grounding itself in a thick, resinous tobacco leaf. There is a persistent sweetness in the background from Mexican vanilla and sugar cane, but it stays buried under bitter artemisia and rugged leather. As it settles, the fir resin and woody notes pull the scent into a darker, earthier territory, sustained by the animalic heat of castoreum. This is heavy, textured, and unapologetically dense, clinging to fabric for hours. Expect a deep, smoky trail that cuts through the cool air of an evening out.
