Halfeti

The oud and rose hit first, but that grapefruit keeps it from being heavy — I keep catching whiffs of it hours later and it’s honestly addictive. Wore it out one evening and couldn’t stop smelling my own wrist.

That opening has this dark, almost smoky sweetness from the rose and oud that lingers for hours, and the spice keeps it interesting without being loud. I keep catching whiffs of it on my own scarf hours later and it genuinely stops me in my tracks.

The grapefruit cuts through the oud and spice just enough to keep it from feeling heavy, and the rose lingers in a way that's almost hypnotic. I've worn it three nights in a row now, and every time I catch a whiff of that moonlit riverbank note, I'm pulled right back into the fantasy.
