Top notes of Calabrian bergamot, grapefruit, and fig leaf open up the fragrance, bringing to mind a citrus orchard in the Italian sun. Mid notes of violet leaf, exotic papyrus, earthy patchouli, striking black pepper, and ambroxan add an intriguing complexity to the blend. Finally, this rich fragrance closes with notes of musk, incense, tonka bean, and aromatic saffron, summoning images of a mysterious ancient market.
