By the editors · 2 min readVoodoo Chic centers on incense and myrrh — dry, resinous, and slightly smoky from the opening. There is no lightness here; it arrives with weight and intention, the smoke more church-ritual than campfire.
Benzoin introduces a subtle sweetness beneath the myrrh, preventing the composition from tipping into pure austerity. Patchouli adds an earthy, slightly dark texture that threads through the resinous core rather than dominating it.
Amber in the base warms and unifies everything, pulling the drydown toward a smooth, balsamic finish that lingers on skin. The overall character is dense and meditative — best suited to cooler evenings when something shadowy and persistent is called for.
