Released in 2024, it opens with a short, bright burst of rose and then goes down into woods and resin: oud, patchouli, sandalwood and Atlas cedar, settling on cistus labdanum and saffron. The house describes the finish as almost incense-like. One reviewer found the rose sharp and metallic at first, with a dry, slightly animalic woodiness underneath, and still named it their favorite Argos. Expect something solemn and resinous rather than a pretty rose.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eScent Character\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cdiv data-venba-scent-character\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOud\u003c\/strong\u003e — 43%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWoody\u003c\/strong\u003e — 29%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpicy\u003c\/strong\u003e — 14%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFloral\u003c\/strong\u003e — 14%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eTranslation:\u003c\/em\u003e a woody oud fragrance with a rose top.
