Borntostandout Fugazzi EDP
Description
Fugazzi is Borntostandout's collaboration piece, and it splits the difference between the house's dirty gourmand instincts and something airier, an amber woody eau de parfum by Quentin Bisch built on a forbidden-romance concept. It opens with a creamy wash of milk against sharp grapefruit and mandarin, warms through cumin and incense, then settles into suede, guaiac wood, and vetiver before a vanilla-ambroxan-styrax drydown. Milk and smoke shouldn't work together this well.
Scent Character
- Woody & Resinous: 47%

Translation: woods and resins dominate here, guaiac wood, styrax, and ambroxan give it a smoky, suede-like depth well ahead of the citrus opening or the vanilla base.
