Complex, dark, and genuinely surprising. Buried Past opens with orange, tobacco leaf, vanilla, and chocolate in the same breath - a combination that sounds like a dessert and wears like something considerably more complicated. Patchouli and black pepper push through the middle with earthy, spiced authority. Then cumin closes it at the base, adding a raw, slightly animalic depth that most fragrances wouldn't dare.
For wearers who like their scents to have something to say. 50ml EDP. Small batch. Paraben and phthalate-free.
Who's It For
Wearers who gravitate toward bold, unconventional oriental compositions and aren't looking for something safe or crowd-pleasing. The orange and chocolate opening is surprisingly approachable, but the black pepper and cumin base is uncompromising. Buried Past is a fragrance for people who've already worked through the more familiar parts of the Persons of Interest range and want to go further.
