REVIEWS

Fragrantica - dabbed this on my cotton paper sketchbook and my whole office smells like incense for 2 whole days! It’s great! It really does project but at the same time elusive. The name of this fragrance is very appropriate. Out of the two new releases, I think I like this one better.

Fragrantica - Starts off bright, with that dusky rose you get a hint of everything and the dry down is the most delicious cedar/charcoal/sandalwood scent that had me sniffing my arm all day because I would catch whiffs while driving and walking. Longevity is insane on this it lasts overnight for me and nothing ever lasts on me. Definitely projects but not in a migraine inducing way. This scent is truly unique and beautiful it’s witchy it’s beautiful and I think it’s really great for any season. If you like the likes of black saffron and things up that alley you would love this. It’s dirty, it’s feminine it’s sexy. 10/10

Fragrantica - If you’re a fan of a “dirty rose” like me I.e the bases of black saffron Byredo this is for you. You get the nice rose in the initial spray the dry down is very incense/charcoal but not heavy this is VERY wearable. I really enjoy this

Fragrantica - Right out of the gate, this doesn’t smell like the typical Kerosene profile. No syrupy gourmand density like Unknown Pleasures and Found in Light, or aggressively linear projection like Blackmail and Broken Theories. Instead, it leans abstractly liturgical and atmospheric, almost reverent in tone. There’s a distinct incense accord that feels closer to old world church resin than smoky abstraction, layered with a slightly waxy, mineralic quality that evokes cold stone, extinguished candles, and that faint metallic echo you get in cavernous neo-gothic sanctuaries.

Fragrantica - Opens with an overwhelming blast of smoke (and general barbecue-ish-ness) that chokes everything else out: there's no rose, no cedar, just an inferno. But around half an hour in, that slowly burns out, revealing a smoky, gorgeous rose that has this spicy creaminess from the sandalwood and cedar.

This fragrance tells the unmistakable story of an angel, or maybe Icarus, plummeting to earth in a pillar of holy light and landing in the rose garden of a lonely wooden church. No, I don't like the opening, but it is SO evocative that it adds to the experience for me.
