What It Smells Like
The Abandoned Mansion opens with the crisp tartness of quince alongside green petitgrain and the subtle warmth of pimento berry. The opening feels bright but unsettled, like stepping through rusted gates into an overgrown estate where nature has begun reclaiming the grounds.
As the fragrance develops, cedar and oakmoss absolute emerge to create the feeling of aged wooden floors, forgotten corridors and ivy-covered walls. The woods feel dry and slightly dusty, while the moss adds an earthy, damp elegance that evokes old stone and shaded gardens.
During the dry down, ambreine and the signature paperback accord take centre stage. The fragrance becomes warm, nostalgic and quietly haunting, capturing the scent of yellowed pages, forgotten libraries and stories left behind on abandoned shelves.
Overall, the fragrance feels melancholic, atmospheric and deeply evocative, like exploring a forgotten mansion filled with old books, weathered wood and lingering memories.
