By the editors · 2 min readOpens with a curl of incense smoke — dry, churchy, faintly resinous — that sets a low-lit tone before any sweetness arrives.
The composition then leans into a deep earthy-woody base where patchouli takes the lead, dark and slightly camphorous, with vetiver pulling roots and damp soil in beside it. Vanilla appears late and underneath, less as a sweetener and more as a balsamic warming agent that keeps the patchouli from going austere. Sandalwood lingers as a creamy bottom note. Texture is dense and shadowed, projection stays moderate and close to the body, the temperature reads cool-warm. It evokes a wooden chest opened in a stone-floored room.
Overall an introspective patchouli-incense built for dim light.
