Al Contrario (2274 Special Edition)
EDPUnisex
The Story
Al Contrario is a bold, smoky leather fragrance that flips expectations on their head. The 2274 Special Edition amplifies the original with a richer, more intense blend of birch tar and saffron. It opens with a sharp burst of pink pepper and bergamot, then settles into a warm, resinous heart of labdanum and styrax. The base is a deep, animalic leather with a touch of vanilla and ambergris. This is a scent for those who love dark, uncompromising fragrances.
