Kathmandu
Kathmandu by Tcheon Fung Sing opens with bergamot, clove and galbanum, moving into a heart of black pepper, cumin and orange blossom, while musk and woods remain in the base. Coffee, frankincense and oud appear alongside, joined by an amber accord. The scent is part of the Spicy family and shows a green, resinous character. It comes as an aftershave splash and a shaving soap.
