This fragrance composition combines fruity, floral, and woody elements, with the deep richness of oud and incense adding complexity. The vanilla, amber, and musk create a warm, sensual base. Here’s a breakdown of the notes:

Top Notes: Litchi, Pear, Bergamot, Grapefruit, and Pink Pepper

  • Litchi: Offers a sweet, fruity, and slightly floral aroma with a juicy and exotic character. It brings a refreshing, tropical feel to the opening.
  • Pear: Adds a crisp, sweet, and juicy note, contributing to the fresh, fruity aspect of the fragrance with a soft, smooth texture.
  • Bergamot: A citrus note that is bright, zesty, and slightly floral. It adds a fresh and uplifting element to the top, balancing the sweetness of the fruit notes with a hint of sharpness.
  • Grapefruit: Brings a tangy, citrusy, and slightly bitter note, which adds a vibrant and energetic quality to the fragrance’s opening.
  • Pink Pepper: Adds a spicy, zesty note with a subtle fruity sweetness and warmth. It enhances the freshness of the citrus notes while introducing a light peppery kick.

Middle Notes: Turkish Rose, Agarwood (Oud), and Incense

  • Turkish Rose: A rich, classic floral note that is deep, sweet, and slightly spicy. It brings elegance and warmth to the heart of the fragrance, complementing the freshness of the top notes.
  • Agarwood (Oud): A dark, resinous, smoky, and woody note that adds depth and complexity. Oud brings a luxurious, intense quality to the fragrance, giving it a sense of mystery and opulence.
  • Incense: Adds a smoky, resinous, and sometimes sweet note, enhancing the fragrance with an earthy, spiritual quality. The incense brings an aromatic, smoky character that works harmoniously with oud.

Base Notes: Vanilla, Amber, Woody Notes, Musk, Vetiver, and Evernyl

  • Vanilla: A sweet, creamy, and warm note that adds smoothness and depth to the fragrance. It softens the intensity of the other notes, contributing to a comforting, inviting finish.
  • Amber: A warm, resinous note with sweet, honeyed undertones. Amber provides richness and sensuality, helping to round out the fragrance and enhance its longevity.
  • Woody Notes: These add a dry, earthy, and sometimes smoky quality to the base, evoking the scent of forests or woods and adding depth to the overall composition.
  • Musk: Adds a soft, sensual, and animalic warmth, providing depth and longevity to the fragrance. Musk also enhances the overall softness and smoothness of the base.
  • Vetiver: An earthy, woody note with grassy, smoky undertones. Vetiver adds sophistication and grounding to the fragrance, balancing the sweetness of vanilla and amber with its dry, earthy qualities.
  • Evernyl: A synthetic note that mimics the scent of oakmoss, adding a mossy, green, and woody element with a slight earthy, damp quality. It complements the other woody and earthy notes, providing a natural, forest-like richness.

Overall Impression:

This fragrance has a vibrant and complex character, starting with fresh and fruity top notes of litchi, pear, grapefruit, and bergamot, balanced by the spice of pink pepper. The heart is floral and deep, with Turkish rose providing an elegant, rosy quality, while oud and incense add a smoky, resinous richness. The base is warm, sensual, and earthy, with the smooth sweetness of vanilla and amber blending with woody notes, vetiver, and the musky depth of Evernyl.

This composition would likely appeal to those who enjoy fragrances that balance fresh, fruity brightness with deep, smoky, and resinous notes. It’s sophisticated, with an exotic flair from the oud and incense, yet softened by the warm sweetness of vanilla and amber.
