Crafted alongside perfumer David Frossard, Fortis is designed for those who refuse to go unnoticed and crave a scent as bold as their personality.

Fortis Perfume is a deeply smoky, woody, and resinous fragrance that wraps the wearer in an almost ceremonial intensity. Cocooning oneself in almost a ceremonial strength is the kind of scent it is by having the deep smoky, woody, and resin note as the primary one. The very first impression is unbelievable and consists of birch tar's sharp and medicinal character that overshadow everything else. Progressing with the smell, the composition is enriched by the deep scent of incense and cistus resin that is like a ritual offering. The fragrance demonstrates both Atlas cedar and labdanum in the base by giving warmth and earthiness while also making a scent that is irresistible and long-lasting. It is definitely not a timid scent. Fortis Perfume is the fragrance type that from the very beginning spritz, it asserts itself, and remains in the memory of everybody who has had the opportunity to encounter it. Being appropriate for the cool months of the year and for the evening, Fortis is a provocative option for people who are passionate about enduring, dark, and natural scents with the element of real depth.
