Myrrh
Fragrance notes
Character
Myrrh by Shaman Perfumery is a masculine fragrance built for cooler evenings and formal settings. It suits someone who prefers a resinous, grounded composition over light citrus or fresh aquatic styles. The wearer who chooses this scent is comfortable with a bold presence and a profile that feels rich rather than airy. It is not a casual daytime choice for warm weather, and it does not try to be. The character is steady and deliberate, offering a clear identity from the first application.
The opening brings lavender and bergamot together with myrrh and elemi, creating an aromatic start that feels both fresh and resinous. Myrrh continues into the heart, where tolu balsam and tonka bean add a sweet, balsamic depth. The base introduces birch tar, leather, amyris, amber, rose, and musk. These elements combine into a warm, powdery, and spicy finish. The leather and birch tar give it a firm structure, while the amber and tonka bean keep the sweetness present throughout. The musk and rose soften the edges without reducing the weight.
The overall accord list confirms the amber, aromatic, lavender, sweet, powdery, balsamic, warm spicy, vanilla, leather, and fresh spicy facets that shape the experience. Composed by Tada Archawong and launched in 2025, this fragrance stays close to its resinous core from beginning to end. It is a leather fragrance that carries its resin and balsam notes with consistency, never shifting toward a lighter or cleaner direction. The result is a dense, sweet, and spicy resin cake resting on a dark leather table.
