The scent profile of Horus is a symphony of complexity and elegance. It opens with a vibrant burst of citrus—citron, Calabrian bergamot, and Sicilian orange—lending a bright and invigorating introduction that immediately captivates the senses. As the fragrance evolves, the heart reveals a floral trio of ylang-ylang, jasmine, and Rose de Mai, weaving a rich, velvety tapestry that exudes sophistication and warmth. The true magic, however, lies in the base, where an intricate blend of benzoin, oakmoss, cloves, cinnamon, iris, vanilla, labdanum, amber, ginger, styrax, patchouli, amyris, vetiver, and cedar creates a deep, resinous foundation. This luxurious dry-down is both grounding and sensual, leaving a lasting impression that rivals its high-end inspiration.

The Story Behind Horus

Christopher Lee’s inspiration for Horus stems from a deeply personal place. Having grown up in a modest household, he spent his life seeking out the finer things, a pursuit that eventually led him to the world of fragrance. His discovery of Roja Dove’s Haute Luxe was a revelation—not only for its breathtaking composition but also for its staggering $3,500 price tag, a figure far out of reach for most. Recognizing a gap in the market, Christopher set out to craft an inspired alternative that could bring the same level of artistry and allure to fragrance enthusiasts without the prohibitive cost. The result is Horus, a scent that mirrors the grandeur of its muse while saving consumers over $3,000. Part of his coveted Black Top Private Collection, set to launch in May, this fragrance is a shining example of his dual talent for creating both original works and inspired masterpieces.
