Estimated from notes and accords. Reviews will refine this.
Obsession surrounds warm amber and vanilla with aromatic herbs, citrus and a dense heart of spices, sandalwood and coriander. Incense, musk, oakmoss and civet give the sweetness a smoky, animalic depth, creating a rich and enveloping scent that feels distinctly sensual without losing the dry woods and spice that define its character.
