About Roots
Roots by Liwan: An Earthy, Spicy Unisex Fragrance
Roots is the new fragrance from Liwan, a woody spicy creation intended for both men and women. Launching in 2026, it sets pink pepper's fresh, fiery top note against a cushiony suede base.
The perfumer behind the scent is Hamid Merati-Kashani, who builds the composition around a cypress heart and a patchouli-suede foundation.
The first impression is bright and gently sharp, thanks to pink pepper. The note adds a delicate fruity warmth, while cypress gives the middle a crisp, resinous greenness.
As the scent settles, patchouli and suede take over. The blend feels earthy but soft, with a hint of leather that keeps the drydown sleek and modern.
The official accords for Roots span woody, patchouli, musky, soft spicy, leather, aromatic, warm spicy, fresh spicy, earthy and powdery. Each of these facets comes into play at different stages of wear.
Roots is a restrained composition. It doesn't shout for attention; instead, it unspools at a steady pace and leaves a close, polished sillage. That makes it suitable for both office days and relaxed weekends.
It performs especially well in cool weather and in the evening, when the warmer base notes feel particularly comforting.
A good fit for those who appreciate woody, unisex perfumes and want a fragrance with patchouli intensity tempered by a soft leather-suede texture.
Overall, Roots is a striking new release from Liwan: a woody, softly spicy perfume by Hamid Merati-Kashani that balances freshness, earthiness and warmth in one elegant composition.
