Al Contrario (2089 Anniversary Edition)
EDPUnisex
The Story
Al Contrario is a bold, smoky leather fragrance that defies expectations. The 2089 Anniversary Edition celebrates the brand's heritage with a refined composition of dark leather, incense, and spices. It opens with a burst of saffron and pink pepper, then settles into a rich, resinous heart of labdanum and styrax. The base is a deep, animalic blend of leather, oud, and musk that lingers for hours.
