Fragrance notes

The scent

It starts with a bite. Crisp red apple and bright bergamot hit first, then black pepper rolls in with a dry, prickling warmth that wakes everything up. It smells like the moment you walk into a room and everyone turns around.

Then the spice arrives. Real cinnamon bark — not the sweet bakery kind, but the warm, resinous, slightly woody kind that makes this a genuinely spicy vanilla perfume rather than a sweet one. Mahogany gives it weight and polish, pink pepper lifts it with a sparkling, almost rosy heat. This is the heart of Ember, and it's magnetic — the kind of scent that makes someone lean in closer and ask what you're wearing.

The dry-down is where it settles into your skin and stays. Madagascar vanilla — rich, creamy, not sugary. Sandalwood smooths everything into something velvety and warm, and vetiver grounds it with an earthy depth that keeps the sweetness in check. It's comforting without being predictable. Hours later, you'll catch it on your collar and want to wear it again tomorrow.

A unisex perfume that smells different on every person — warm skin brings out the vanilla, cooler skin pushes the spice. This is a warm winter fragrance for the everyday moments that matter: the morning meeting where you need to feel put together, the dinner where you want to smell as good as you look, the cold walk home when your scarf carries something warm and familiar. It never tries too hard. It just works.

When to wear

Ember is a spicy vanilla perfume built for the cold months — the warm winter fragrance you reach for when the temperature drops and you want something that actually holds up outdoors. It works equally well dressed up for dinner or layered under a coat on the school run, and it makes a genuinely thoughtful gift for anyone who runs cold.

Choose your format

One scent, three ways to wear it: a classic eau de parfum spray, an alcohol-free spray, and a roll-on perfume oil — and it wears just as naturally as a men's cologne or a women's perfume. Every format is blended at 20–25% perfume concentration — parfum strength, above most designer EDPs — which is what makes it a genuinely long-lasting spiced vanilla scent rather than one that vanishes by lunch.
