The story

Lalibela, veiled in oud.

Named for the Ethiopian city at 2,500 metres whose twelve churches were hewn from rock — in legend, by angels, in a single night. Coconut and orchid open creamy and unexpected, rose and jasmine absolute fill the heart, and vanilla, tobacco, labdanum, incense and oud make a base that is warm rather than austere.

How it wears

Top notes greet you, the heart settles in over the first hour, and the base is what stays on skin at the end of the evening.
