SARTORIAL

The lavender and vanilla notes really settle into something warm and tailored, almost like a fresh suit straight from the press. Lasts a solid five hours on my collar without turning cloying, which is rare for a scent this sharp.

The cardamom and leather combo hits that sweet spot between warm and sharp—I’ve worn it to the office and straight to dinner, and it holds up without screaming for attention. The vanilla and tonka settle in nicely after an hour or so, making it feel more refined than your average cologne.

The cardamom hits first, sharp and warm, before the leather and lavender settle in—it’s a well-blended mix that lasts a good six hours on my skin. Only gripe is the sillage is a bit quiet for my taste, but the tonka base keeps it interesting to the end.
