🔥 Top Notes – Warmth & Spice

• Saffron — Rich, leathery, and exotic

• Black Pepper — Dry, sharp heat

• Rose Essence — A dark Turkish or Damask rose, luxurious and smoky

• Dried Plum — Adds subtle jammy sweetness and fruit-smoke depth

🌌 Heart Notes – Incense & Oud

• Cambodian Oud — Animalic, resinous, deep (not sweet)

• Olibanum (Frankincense) — Sacred smoke and calm fire

• Leather Accord — Warm, worn, slightly smoky

• Amber — Rich, glowing warmth, almost liquid gold

• Raspberry (like in Ombre Nomade) — Juicy-sweet contrast to the smoke

🌑 Base Notes – Earth & Shadow

• Oud (again, dry or Laotian style) — Burnt, woody core

• Patchouli — Earthy, grounding, dirty-lush

• Birch Tar — Smoky, campfire-like charred wood

• Sandalwood — Softens and balances the bitter edges

• Labdanum — Sticky-resin warmth, dark incense twist

• Musk — To amplify sillage and mystery
