Description
Description Kobraa is smoke and wood: black incense drifting over a deep oud, kept fresh by a green thread of geranium. Part of Bvlgari's Le Gemme, the house's high-perfumery collection in which each scent is tied to a gemstone, it draws on snake jasper, a stone Bvlgari links to Zealandia, the largely submerged continent. Jacques Cavallier Belletrud composed it in 2020 around a smoked black incense heart essence, with white incense and olibanum alongside and oud in the base. Geranium at the top keeps a clean, slightly minty core beneath the smoke, so it feels mysterious without turning heavy or medicinal.
Fragrance Pyramid Top: Geranium Heart: Black Incense, White Incense, Olibanum Base: Agarwood (Oud) Performance Longevity: Long-wearing; incense and oud like this last well into the evening and cling to fabric. Sillage: Moderate to strong in the first hours. Projection: Arm's length or more early on, then a smoky wood close to the skin.
An honest note: incense-heavy scents can feel intense in a small room. Start with a light hand.
Best Occasions & Season Best in Fall and Winter, with cool spring evenings a good fit too. Suited to evenings, special occasions and anyone who loves incense. Bvlgari places it in the men's Le Gemme line. Skip it in summer heat or if smoke is not your thing.
