Naxos
Lavender fields and desert sage on application, and vanilla, tonka and incense for the long haul. The character is multifaceted and meant to be read in stages; the finish is warm and sweet with real depth underneath. Most wearers place it as masculine.

Aromatic herbs over vanilla and tonka
Heart — the middle
- Aromatic HerbsLavender fields and desert sage.
Base — what lingers
- VanillaBourbon pods split lengthwise.
- TonkaAlmond, hay and warm skin.
- Smoky / IncenseBakhoor smoke curling in a majlis.
A base-heavy structure rewards restraint: one dab at the wrist, one behind the ear, and it will still be there at the end of the evening. Oil carries this weight far better than alcohol does.
Khamra Oud
Dates · Praline · Oud
Khamra Oud is built on the same vanilla, tonka and incense, and its base — Oud, Vanilla, Myrrh, Amberwood — carries the profile at the same weight Naxos does on skin.
