Sahara Noir is the smell of a sacred fire lit under a black sky—mystical, smoky, and unapologetically resinous.
The structure is built around an imposing spine of olibanum in all its forms: oil, resinoid, and crystals, surrounded by labdanum, amber core, and cedryl acetate. This is incense in full ceremonial mode, not a whisper but a chant.
Behind the incense curtain, Sahara Noir reveals a mosaic of spice and leather: nutmeg, galbanum, castoreum, and birch tar, while rum succan, cognac, and musk ketone add narcotic warmth.
The floral and herbal gestures are discreet yet essential—clary sage, heliotropin, and geraniol soften the drama with a glowing veil.
Heavy on Habanolide, Vertofix, and Iso E Super, it projects like a mirage across skin: dry, endless, haunting.
