🧮 Number of Ingredients: 60

Labdanum 18 is Maurice Roucel at his most intimate: a soft-focus amber-musk with the warmth of skin and the comfort of worn cashmere. The opening is little more than a whisper—fleeting citrus, a faint floral haze—quickly sinking into a cloud of musks that feel rounded, milky, and quietly magnetic. From the start, it carries Roucel’s unmistakable sensual signature: enveloping, caressing, almost tactile in the way it clings to the skin.

The heart reveals a gentle, resinous amber smoothed by creamy woods and brushed with hints of spice. Nothing is loud, nothing is sweet; everything is diffused, warm, slightly animalic in a clean, modern way. Beneath the softness lies a subtle thrum of fur-like notes—civet, castoreum, warmth-of-body illusions—that give the fragrance its intimate depth. This is not a perfume that projects; it pulls you closer.

✨ The Result

A warm, musky amber that clings to the skin—soft, sensual, quietly addictive.
