Rayhaan Obsidian

Mostly dry and warm, like cedar shavings or the inside of a wooden drawer. Underneath that, cool, powdery and slightly rooty, closer to makeup than to a flower.

It opens on iris and citrus, moves through leather, and settles on sandalwood, ambrette and cedar.

• iris: cool and powdery with a rooty edge. Closer to makeup or clean laundry than to a flower
• leather: like a new leather jacket: dry, smoky, faintly bitter

It lasts well and carries into a room.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
