Bastion 23 by mabra is a 2024 release composed by perfumer Brahim Mohamed. The composition opens with an unusual mix of deer musk and hemp alongside plum and palo santo, brightened by cocoa, sweet orange, and orange blossom. A heart of cedar, honey, jasmine, iris, vanilla, and tonka bean leads to a base built around multiple oud profiles—Terengganu (Malaysia), Cambodia, and Kalakassi (India)—with a return of deer musk. The result is a woody-oriental profile that balances smoky woods, animalic facets, and sweet floral tones.
