Radical Brown

The lemon erupts first, sharp and slightly astringent, immediately joined by a pepper-cinnamon duet that creates a warming, almost spicy bite. Within moments you're enveloped in a sweet-spice haze that feels almost edible, the cinnamon particularly prominent as it cuts through the citrus with genuine heat.

The tobacco emerges like something opening its eyes, grounding all that initial spice into something richer and more complex—earthy and faintly leathery against the amber's honeyed warmth. The geranium and lavender drift in subtly, adding a whispered floral sophistication that prevents the sweetness from becoming cloying, whilst the frankincense lends a resinous, slightly incense-like depth that makes the composition feel more refined than its initial exuberance suggested.

The cedarwood and vetiver form a woody-earthy foundation that's warmed by lingering amber, creating a soft amber-tobacco base that's remarkably skin-like and comforting. The spice has mellowed into a gentle warmth, the fragrance settling into a creamy, almost powdery iteration of itself—understated and intimate where it once dominated.
