What does Passion Dark smell like?

Passion Dark is a fruity leather Extrait built around passion fruit, saffron, pink pepper, rose, oud, leather, and vanilla. The opening is loud and juicy — passion fruit reads tart and slightly sour, almost fizzy, with pink pepper adding a sharp, prickling edge. Saffron settles in fast, warm and faintly medicinal, pulling the fruit toward something darker. Rose moves through the middle, not powdery but slightly jammy, bridging the fruit and the smoky oud underneath. Oud and leather build the base together, dry and smoky rather than sweet, giving the whole accord a dense, resinous weight. Vanilla softens the edges late, warm and slightly creamy against the leather. Worn start to finish, it moves from bright and tart to dark and smoky, landing on a warm, leather-close finish by the final stage.
