The Experience:
Complex opens with a sharp herbal flourish—sage and basil produce a crisp, invigorating aroma that immediately commands attention. Very quickly, a velvety heart emerges: violet and incense mingle in a mysterious whirl, softened by olibanum’s smoky resinous quality. As the fragrance dries down, the richness deepens: leather and oud lay down a bold foundation, wrapped in musk that smooths the edges and extends the scent’s trail.
It’s not a subtle whisper—Complex is strong, sculpted, and unapologetic. Reviewers describe it as an entourage of resinous woods and animalic depths, a scent that “gets better and better as it develops on skin.”
