The "Deep Dive"

The Dry-Down

Initially bright with grapefruit transitioning quickly to reveal a warm, soft, and slightly spicy mix of tobacco and amber. As it develops, the tobacco note becomes more pronounced, leading to a deeper, creamy sweetness that sits close to the skin, fostering an intimate feel as the cedarwood base anchors the fragrance.
