Bortnikoff Sambac Rouge Extrait

Description

Sambac Rouge, created by Dmitry Bortnikoff and launched in summer 2026, opens with juicy cherry and raspberry warmed by pink pepper and ginger, before an opulent heart of jasmine sambac unfurls over amber for a creamy, sensual floral depth. The drydown settles into a velvety sandalwood and musk base built from Bortnikoff's in-house natural oils.

Scent Character

A fruity-floral composition: tart cherry and raspberry against a rich jasmine sambac heart, finishing in warm sandalwood and musk. No oud and no leather in this one — it's built for vibrancy and warmth rather than smoke or depth.
