- Description
- A bold animalic floral-chypre with jasmine, Turkish rose, carnation, orange blossom, bitter citrus, tobacco, hyrax, castoreum, cumin, oakmoss, hay, styrax, patchouli, birch, and vanilla. It is intentionally carnal: honeyed flowers, warm skin, musk, moss, spice, and resin all pressing close together. Salome feels vintage, theatrical, and provocative, but the structure is refined enough to make the excess feel controlled rather than chaotic.
