About Obsidian
Obsidian by Careso: A Woody Oriental for Men, Launching in 2026
Careso has unveiled Obsidian, a new masculine fragrance in the woody oriental family. The scent is due to launch in 2026.
Oud wood leads the opening, with benzoin and rose at its heart. Raspberry, saffron and incense complete the composition with warmth and depth.
Obsidian is centred on oud, a dark and resinous wood that makes itself known from the first moments. The heart, built around benzoin and rose, brings a balsamic, gently floral softness to balance the oud's intensity.
The base offers an intriguing trio of raspberry, saffron and incense. Raspberry adds a fruity, barely sweet touch, saffron turns up the heat with spicy warmth, and incense weaves a smoky, almost ritualistic thread through the drydown.
Throughout the wear, woody, spicy, balsamic and fruity accords intermingle. Amber, leather and a faint metallic shimmer create a thoroughly modern, shadowy finish.
This is a woody oriental for those who want a fragrance with real presence. The rose prevents the composition from feeling too severe, while benzoin imparts a smooth, resinous feel.
Obsidian is a study in contrasts: sweet and smoky, floral and metallic. It is best suited to evening wear, the colder months and occasions that call for something memorable.
Men with a taste for assertive, complex orientals — dark, spicy and contemporary — will get the most out of Obsidian.
Obsidian is a bold, memorable addition to the Careso line-up: a dark, warm woody scent with fruity and smoky nuances. Its 2026 launch is sure to appeal to fans of outgoing orientals.
