by Naomi Campbell
Mystery by Naomi Campbell is a sophisticated, dense woody oriental with a dark, sensual character. It opens with a striking blend of bitter citrus, galbanum, and a bold burst of tonka bean, creating an immediately compelling and mysterious aura. The middle notes of plum and hibiscus add a smooth, slightly sweet fruity depth that complements the dry, resinous base. Over time, the fragrance evolves into a warm, bittersweet amber-woody composition with sandalwood and benzoin providing depth and quiet elegance. The scent is neither overtly sweet nor masculine—it leans heavily into adult, refined sensuality, with a tone that feels luxurious and intimate. It possesses moderate sillage and longevity, though one user notes it requires generous application to achieve full projection, suggesting a need for patience and multiple sprays to fully appreciate its full character. While some find the resinous wood and amber note slightly overwhelming, the consensus favors its unique refinement and subtle complexity over generic or overly sweet offerings.
