QUINTESSENTIAL

A fragrance built around ambergris, sandalwood, piñon, butter rum, red currant, and white woods would feel both luxurious and comforting, with a balance of warmth, sweetness, and subtle intrigue.

It opens with the bright tartness of red currant, adding a juicy, slightly tangy sparkle that immediately draws attention. As it settles, the piñon butter rum emerges — creamy, resinous, and faintly boozy — evoking the scent of warm wood sap mingled with spiced sweetness.

The heart deepens with sandalwood, smooth and velvety, wrapping the composition in a soft, meditative warmth. Ambergris lends a salty, skin-like sensuality, giving the fragrance a luminous, oceanic depth that contrasts beautifully with the gourmand undertones. Finally, white woods anchor everything with a clean, dry finish, leaving behind a trail that feels both grounded and ethereal.

Overall, it’s a scent that feels like a fireside evening by the coast — rich, golden, and quietly magnetic.
