Obsidian opens on grapefruit and aldehydes before easing into a myrrh and labdanum heart. What you'll smell on skin hours in is amber, tonka bean, and vanilla — the base does the heavy lifting here. Performance lands in the middle: dependable longevity with measured projection. Lives in the fall-to-winter window at any hour. The pitch is straightforward: By Kilian Angel's Share On The Rocks-adjacent for buyers who don't want to pay designer money.
