Halfeti

Cypress leaf and grapefruit hit first, cutting sharp through a heavy dose of saffron and cardamom. It is a dry, woody affair that avoids traditional sweetness, relying instead on a leathery core softened by Bulgarian rose and nutmeg. As it settles, the oud and sandalwood ground the scent, lingering on fabric with a steady, quiet authority. It handles the transition from boardroom to evening transition with ease, never feeling too light for the office or too loud for a quiet gathering. The tonka and vanilla are barely there, just enough to round the edges of the cedar and amber base.
