An opulent, comforting amber-woody fragrance inspired by the majestic hanging gardens and ancient spice markets of Babylon. Opening with an inviting spice blend of saffron, warm nutmeg, and coriander, it deepens into an earthy heart of cypriol oil. The drydown wraps the wearer in a divine, cocooning blanket of rich vanilla, cedarwood, and creamy sandalwood.
