Halston Z14

Halston Z-14, a Warm Woody Chypre

Halston Z-14 is a warm woody chypre classic. Our version keeps that feel, opening with cypress, gardenia, and basil before a patchouli, vetiver, and cinnamon heart settles over leather, tonka bean, and amber.

The Story Behind the Scent

Halston built Z-14 as a bold, sophisticated seventies chypre, all green herbs and warm spice over a leathery base. The idea was a rich, distinguished masculinity.

That warm richness is its appeal. The cypress and basil give it a green lift, the patchouli and cinnamon add a warm spice, and the leather and tonka give it a smooth depth. Our interpretation follows that same distinguished path.
