Fresh and Citrus Expressions

Eclipse opens with sea notes, grapefruit and mandarin orange that give it a bright, aquatic lift. The heart brings in bay leaf and jasmine to add green herbal texture alongside the fruit. Ambergris, oakmoss, guaiac wood and patchouli in the base ground the citrus with earthy, mineral depth, making this feel both clean and substantial.

This is a straightforward choice if you want something Fresh and citrus without sweetness or heavy florals. The mineral sea notes keep it cool and a little sharp throughout.

Sweet and Fruity Characters

Al Rasi leads with bergamot and cherry, a fruity-bright top that sits over jasmine, ylang-ylang and soft florals in the heart. The base rests on lily of the valley and a warm floral accord, building a soft, creamy profile that leans sweetly without becoming cloying.

The Pearl takes a different path with red apple and mandarin orange as its top notes, then introduces leather and violet in the heart for a subtle dried-fruit effect. Vanilla, amber, labdanum and woods in the base add warmth and a slight woody sweetness, making this fruity option more complex and less purely gourmand than Al Rasi.

Woody and Aromatic Depth

Ambra Nuit is built on oud, sandalwood and rosewood in the top, setting a rich woody foundation immediately. Cardamom, vanilla, vetiver and tonka bean layer the heart with spice and creamy sweetness, while the base doubles down with more oud and warm woods, creating a deep, enveloping woody character.

Oriental Oud also features oud as a main player, but approaches it differently: sicilian bergamot and pink pepper brighten the top, oud and white amber center the heart with rosemary alongside, and haitian vetiver, leather and white musk in the base add a mineral, skin-scent dryness. Both are woody, but Ambra Nuit is richer and warmer while Oriental Oud leans drier and more aromatic.

Spicy, Incense and Leather Tones

Catch You Back brings saffron, suede and mineral notes at the top for a warm, slightly dusty opening. Violet leaf and mandarin in the heart add a green, subtle fruit note, while osmanthus and soft woods in the base keep the fragrance gentle despite the spice. This sits in the spicy and warm family but with restraint and mineral texture throughout.

Irish Ferre centres on leather with juniper berries and amber in the top, then maté and leather in the heart for a grounded, herbal take on the note. Tonka bean, leather accord and dry woods in the base reinforce its leather identity without harshness. One Off is more abstract: geranium opens it, olibanum incense anchors the heart, and agarwood oud closes it out, building a warm, resinous profile that feels more incense-forward than leather or spice.
