Warding off the evil eye
Sharp, salty, spicy opening — but honestly, pretty interesting. It didn’t push me away. It kind of hits you in the face with something that smells like… ritual, fire, dry earth, and blazing sun. Like an aromatic punch.
I get a lot of salt, anise, and basil, but underneath it all there's something thicker going on. Super complex — kind of like when I was trying to wrap my head around Double Bond. Same level of multi-layered weirdness, in a good way!
After 15–20 minutes, it opens up into something warmer and a bit sweeter — but not pastry-sweet. More of a dry-sweet, lightly caramelized kind of smell.
Then, not long after, the woods and musks start coming through.
Overall, I find it a pretty introspective scent. Definitely one to try!
