A collaboration between Russian Adam and fellow independent perfumer Sultan Pasha, built on an extremely rare 1970s-distilled natural civet tincture whose age lends it a creamy, sweet character rather than a raw animalic one, set against tobacco, resins, and Mysore sandalwood. A limited 2022 collaborative batch.
