2022: the world took its first breath of Oriental Woody B.ATES. By character, a unisex fragrance drawing from the spicy, east, wood, and floral families. The inspiration and craft behind the bottle belong to Mark Buxton and Bünyamin Ateş. An eau de parfum — light-footed, but utterly unforgettable.
Made in Turkey. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
The fragrance is highly persistent and lasts on the skin for up to 8–10 hours, gradually revealing its notes and allowing you to enjoy the full bouquet throughout the day
The scent is clearly present near you, but it does not fill the entire space
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The olfactory structure of Oriental Woody is shaped as a living composition, where accents shift without rush and without gaps. The style of B.ATES is evident from the opening to the final trail. No excess details, only what works, and the composition keeps a clear direction. Eau de parfum supports the right density and pace of development.
As soon as the fragrance opens you catch piquant warm first notes: Cardamom, Lemon and Saffron. These 3 notes shape piquant dynamism that gives the fragrance a clear opening statement.
When the opening settles you notice Jasmine, Labdanum, Moss and Rose keeping a silky white floral direction.
The accord profile is driven by these accords: Balsamic, Citrus, Floral and Wood with each one in a clear role. Additional accords such as Spicy enrich the profile without taking over.
At olfactory-group level the profile is anchored in Spicy, Citrus, Whiteflower and Balsamic. The palette also extends to Earthy / Mossy, Floral, Wood and Gourmet. Within olfactory families the fragrance belongs to East, Floral, Spicy and Wood.
Overall Oriental Woody sounds complete from start to finish — the start forms character, the heart develops the core line, while the drydown anchors the memory. These are the fragrances best experienced in wear.
