Ojar
A unique visual signature based on accords, character, and seasonality
Black pepper dominates with sharp, biting immediacy, whilst blackberry provides jammy sweetness underneath—the spice cutting through fruit like cracked black pepper across blackcurrant jam. Cinnamon arrives as a warm whisper, binding the opening into something simultaneously tart and honeyed.
The oud emerges as a subtle resinous backbone, allowing raspberry to express itself without becoming overly sweet, whilst cedarwood adds a cool, pencil-shaving dryness that prevents cloying. The amber accord blooms here, wrapping everything in soft, skin-like warmth as frankincense begins its gradual ascent.
Patchouli and frankincense dominate a significantly softened composition, creating a faint, animalic-amber haze that clings to skin like a second layer. What remains is predominantly a woody-resinous whisper, intimate and nearly imperceptible beyond arm's length, though utterly present when sought out.
Infusion Velours Ojar arrives as a contradiction—a fragrance that announces itself with peppery, jammy intensity before retreating into an intimate whisper. Jordi Fernández has constructed something deliberately paradoxical here: the opening blackberry and cinnamon create a warm, almost gourmand intensity, yet the fragrance's skeletal longevity means it transforms into a skin scent within minutes. This isn't weakness; it's intentional restraint.
The heart reveals the composition's true architecture. Oud threads through the raspberry, not as the typical medicinal incense one expects, but as a subtle resinous undercurrent that prevents the fruit from becoming saccharine. The cedarwood arrives pencil-sharp, grounding the sweetness with its dry, slightly bitter cedar-oil quality. There's a velvet quality here—the amber accord wraps everything in soft, powdery warmth whilst the spice remains peppery rather than cloying.
