Victor Wong – about future plans and snow leopards

Barnaby Black Pinyon Pass is a unisex fragrance from the American brand Barnaby Black, created for those who appreciate expressive woody and aromatic compositions.
Its character is built around the contrast between cool coniferous freshness, dry greenery, and an unexpected sweet accent.
The name Pinyon Pass seems to invite you onto a mountain trail, where resinous air meets a light, almost airy sweetness.
The fragrance combines pine, juniper (cade), sage, and cotton candy.
Thanks to this combination, the scent feels both natural and unusual: its coniferous-woody base is softened by a gentle gourmand touch, while the herbal nuances give it greater definition.
This is not a straightforward forest accord, but a more distinctive interpretation of the theme, in which freshness and sweetness exist on equal terms.
Pinyon Pass belongs to the aromatic, sweet, and woody fragrance family.
It has a confident, noticeable temperament without being tied to traditional ideas about feminine or masculine perfumery, making it suitable for anyone drawn to coniferous and herbal notes with an unconventional twist.
The sillage is described as very strong, which is an important feature of the fragrance.
Pinyon Pass is best experienced in an open space, where its rich woody-aromatic theme can gradually spread around the wearer.
For everyday use, it is best to start with a moderate number of sprays and take the size of the room, the season, and your skin's individual response into account: the intensity of a perfume is always perceived personally.
The coniferous profile sounds especially natural in cool weather, during a walk, outdoors, or in a relaxed everyday setting.
At the same time, the cotton candy makes the composition less austere and adds a memorable touch, which may appeal to fans of unusual unisex releases.
Pinyon Pass is a fitting choice when you want to emphasize your individuality rather than blend into the familiar perfume background.
In terms of mood, it can be compared with Acqua di Parma Ginepro di Sardegna, Davidoff Cool Water Freeze Me, and Antonio Puig Agua Brava, primarily because of their shared interest in fresh, green, and coniferous directions.
However, Pinyon Pass stands out through its combination of juniper, pine, sage, and a sweet accord, giving it a more contrasting and individual character.
Exact details about the release year, concentration, perfumer, application to skin and clothing, and other Pinyon Pass concentrations have not been disclosed.
For this reason, the fragrance is best evaluated primarily by its actual character: strong sillage, a woody-aromatic profile, and an unusual combination of forest freshness with a sweet accent.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
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 database does not distinguish separate top, middle, and base notes for Pinyon Pass, so the composition is presented as a combined list.
It includes cotton candy, cade juniper, pine, and sage.
Cotton candy adds a soft, sweet nuance to the fragrance. Juniper and pine create a coniferous, woody character, while sage enhances the composition’s aromatic, herbaceous facet.
