Katutaide

The saffron and olibanum heart gives it a smoky, almost church-like warmth that I didn't expect, and the bourbon vanilla peeks through just enough on my skin to keep it from being too austere. I've gotten three compliments in one day wearing it, which never happens to me.

The pepper and saffron hit sharp at first, but the bourbon vanilla and suede dry down is what got me—it lasts all day on my skin without turning cloying. I've worn it to work and out at night; it shifts enough to fit both. Definitely my new signature.

The saffron and olibanum dry down really smooths out that peppery start, and the suede base gives it a cozy feel that lasts most of my workday. Only giving four stars because the sillage is a bit softer than I'd like for a night out, but for daily wear it's spot on.
