Rook is a 50ml Eau de Parfum that presents a smoky leather-tobacco accord with a defined birch tar opening and a warm incense-wood base. The composition is intended for wearers who want a distinct, long-wearing smoky fragrance with pronounced animalic and woody facets.
If you struggle with finding a leather or smoky scent that balances raw animalic notes and a cleaner floral or soapy heart, this helps. The opening is phenolic and smoky then resolves toward a castoreum and cardamom heart before drying down to incense ambrette and guaiac wood.
- Size and concentration 50ml Eau de Parfum for extended longevity compared to EDT
- Top notes: birch tar and tobacco; measurable ingredients listed by the brand
- Middle notes: castoreum, cardamom, ginger, civet and agarwood for leathery animalic character
- Base notes: incense, ambrette, ambergris, guaiac wood and musk for a smoky woody finish

Compared to fresh citrus colognes, Rook emphasizes smoky phenolic and animalic accords. Unlike simple leather fragrances it adds a soapy accord in the heart and a persistent incense-ambergris dry down. Use it as an evening or statement fragrance where longevity and unique smoky character matter.
