Damascus
Damascus by Gentleman's Nod opens with black pepper, cardamom and fig, moving into a heart of davana, iris, rose and saffron. The base settles on cypriol, labdanum, patchouli and tobacco, with dried fruit, leather and smoke alongside. Sweet and warm, it belongs to the Amber / Resinous family and comes as an aftershave splash, eau de parfum and shaving soap.
