Faux Flora No. 5
Fragrance notes
Character
The cellar door is open just wide enough to let the cold night air slip in. A glass of red wine sits near a pile of damp earth, and someone has dragged a worn leather chair close to the fire. The smell in the room is not clean. It is heavy with petrichor and the deep, musky weight of patchouli.
Cypriol rises through the space, dry and sharp against the sweetness of the wine. Ash settles on the wood floor, mixing with the thick smoke of oud that clings to the stone walls. There is an animalic pull here, a hint of civet and indole that feels raw and unwashed, turning the air thick and intimate.
This is a scent for a person who enjoys the feeling of a storm moving through a dark garden. It suits those who find comfort in the smell of wet soil and old leather rather than fresh linen. It is too heavy for a bright morning, and it will overwhelm anyone who prefers a light, floral touch on their skin.
The fire crackles and the wine leaves a dark stain on the rim of the glass, the smoke curling upward while the earthy notes continue to press against the back of the throat
