HoS N.001
by House Of Sillage
HoS N.001 is a rich, sweetly gourmand fragrance with a prominent cherry-vanilla opening that carries strong notes of cinnamon, clove, and tonka bean. It evolves into a warm, spicy, woody dry down with amber, mahogany, and cedar that gives it a comforting, velvety depth, reminiscent of cherry liqueur, chocolate-raspberry, or cocoa-spiced incense. The scent is remarkably long-lasting and projects strongly, with many noting it lingers on skin and clothes for days. It strikes a balance between bold and elegant, with a smooth, creamy character that transforms from initially sweet and intense to more refined and seductive over time. The fragrance is especially associated with evening wear during colder seasons and is often described as attention-grabbing and uniquely personal, though its sweet, syrupy character can feel overwhelming to some. Many praise its quality and craftsmanship, particularly the elegant bottle design and high-performance longevity.
