Black Afgano

The opening is green and herbal, with cannabis leading and green notes keeping it sharp. The heart darkens quickly into resins, woodsy notes, tobacco and roasted coffee, dense and moody. In the dry-down, agarwood and incense take over, resinous and smoky, leaving a heavy trail that stays close for hours.

Rated at ten to fourteen hours, it suits autumn and winter evenings and special occasions more than the office. Wear it to a late dinner, a concert or a night when you want a scent with presence. Collectors of dark, woody fragrances will appreciate how much character fits into a 60ml bottle.
