About this fragrance
Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.
Obsession for Men (1986) opens with a bracing citrus burst—mandarin, lime, bergamot, grapefruit—laced with cinnamon, lavender, and coriander. The heart is a dense thicket of myrrh, nutmeg, carnation, rosewood, pine, sage, jasmine, and red berries, evoking a shadowed forest. The base is a warm, resinous blend of amber, vanilla, sandalwood, musk, patchouli, and vetiver, leaving a spicy, woody trail. This oriental woody is unabashedly bold, with cinnamon and amber dominating. It suits collectors who appreciate vintage powerhouses and cool-weather wear. Ideal for evening or formal occasions, it commands attention. A true relic of the 1980s, it remains a benchmark for spicy ambers.

Price ranges are compiled from our own recorded transactions, not from asking prices.
A batch code cannot prove authenticity on its own, but it can expose contradictions — a code that decodes to a date before the fragrance existed, or a bottle and box that disagree.
