Eau De Brun

The first spray is warm and bright together: cinnamon and cardamom bring a toasty heat, bergamot lifts it and orange blossom adds a soft floral glow. The heart is indulgent, with bourbon vanilla given a resinous twist by elemi. As it dries down, praline and guaiac wood settle with ambroxan and musk into a dense, comforting base.

Bold and comforting, it is a gourmand with real presence that never feels cloying. Rated at eight to ten hours, it suits autumn and winter. Wear it for evenings, formal events and special occasions, especially on cold nights when its vanilla and praline feel most at home and its trail is most noticeable.
