J Kyse
by Kyse Perfumes
J Kyse is a rich, smoky tobacco and vanilla fragrance with strong oud and cedar notes, creating a warm, campfire-like atmosphere. The opening is bold and dry, with aggressive tobacco and oud that are immediately noticeable, but softened by a sweet vanila base that gives the scent a gourmand warmth without being overly sweet. Over time, the fragrance evolves into a dry, woody trail with a subtle animalic depth, reminiscent of leather and smoked wood, making it feel deeply sensual and atmospheric. It’s particularly beloved for its cozy, immersive quality and is frequently associated with cold weather, night wear, and a sense of nostalgia — like memories of camping or old leather books.
