Blackberry leaf and apricot open with a green-tart freshness before orris root and rosewood take the composition into warmer, woodier territory. Cassis adds a dark fruit quality to the heart that jasmine sambac lifts without sweetening. Black leather in the base arrives clean and dry, cedar giving it structure, popcorn adding a starchy, unexpected textural note that lingers beneath everything else.

Why We Carry This

Coppermann's approach here is quietly counterintuitive: a blackberry leaf and apricot opening into a black leather base is not an obvious sequence, and the popcorn note in the drydown is either the most interesting choice in the collection or the most divisive.
