At Biehl's at Midnight
mb03 is a dark, spicy fragrance in which Mark Buxton has once again fully expressed his love for incense. It dominates the scent, energetically supported by pepper and a gentle leather note, and when I say "dark," I mean in a completely different way than, for example, "Noir de Noir" is dark: "mb03" is cool, angular, almost brittle. Whoever wears this fragrance, I imagine, wants to be untouchable: only admiration from afar is allowed, and if the world were to slide off one's back, "mb03" would be just the right olfactory message.

I am undecided whether I would acquire "mb03" again today - not because I don't like the scent, I do, but because it becomes extremely similar to Mark Buxton's "Around Midnight" on my skin, and I would prefer the latter due to the wonderfully cool jasmine.

Remarkably similar to Si Lolita with peppery, woody elemi resin. The wood is a bit more assertive in this one.

A soft, dry-sweet resin scent with a fine amber touch. Almost meditative. It relaxes me. A tender-woody embrace.

A favorite nose (Buxton)
With a favorite note combo

Peace.
Joy.

Wood, sawdust, resins, and bright, cool incense define this scent for me. The pepper could have been toned down a bit, in my opinion. +

Frankincense, woods, and resins oscillate between sacred and demonic - and Nick Cave sings "Into My Arms".
O Lord!

Herb-balsamic, warm incense. Really well done, feels too meditative for me even though labdanum sharpens the scent.

Bright, light incense surrounds warm, slightly sweet resins + woods. Dry + subtly spicy. Relaxing, gentle wellness scent. Rather soft.
