• Heart Notes: Cinnamon, Geranium, Lavender, Civet
  

• Base Notes: Vanilla, Guaiac Wood, Agarwood (Oud), Patchouli, Oakmoss

🍏 The Opening – Fresh, Fruity, and Sparkling

The top notes of bergamot, apple, and grapefruit offer a zesty and slightly tart introduction that feels both invigorating and energetic. While it maintains the fruity DNA of the original Layton, Exclusif quickly signals its depth with a slightly more concentrated and textured opening. This fresh start sets the stage for the warmth and mystery to come.

Unlike fleeting citrus top notes in other fragrances, Layton Exclusif's opening has a velvety undertone that already hints at its darker core, making it captivating from the first spray.

🌿 The Heart – Spicy, Animalic, and Refined

As the fragrance develops, it reveals its true nature—layered, exotic, and confidently masculine with cinnamon, lavender, geranium, and an intriguing note of civet. This blend creates a spicy and floral heart that’s both refined and primal.

Civet, often used in luxurious perfumery, adds a sensual, musky tone that enhances the richness and gives the scent an undeniably seductive character. The balance of lavender and geranium smooths the blend with an aromatic freshness, while the cinnamon warms it up with spicy depth.

This is the turning point where Layton Exclusif distinguishes itself from the original—becoming more daring, more intense, and absolutely commanding.

🔥 The Base – Woody, Oriental, and Deeply Addictive

The dry down is where the perfume shines. A decadent blend of vanilla, oud, guaiac wood, patchouli, and oakmoss creates an irresistible base that lingers for hours. The vanilla is smooth and creamy, but far from sugary—it’s warm and enveloping, paired perfectly with the resinous and smoky touch of oud.

Guaiac wood and patchouli offer a grounded, earthy feel, giving the fragrance structure and strength. Oakmoss adds an element of classic masculinity, giving a subtle nod to traditional chypre-style perfumes while still keeping the blend thoroughly modern.

The result is a trail that’s smoky, woody, and luxuriously warm—a fragrance that clings to the skin like a well-fitted suit.
