Leather souls in misty fields
Their dark souls would faintly glow at nights like will-o'-the-wisps made of obscure resins over the misty fields. It is said that one can still sense former lifes in their wild leathery faces, in bitter almond brown colored mists above their warm and soft bodies, in their legs made of bark, on which they wander through earth like liqueurs and spin their threads of woody nutgrass roots into all the warm, damp soils like green trails of smokes and gasoline. Sometimes we follow them.

Alejandro Acosta's multimedia oeuvre spans many areas. It is primarily his painting that has made him famous worldwide. He lives and works in Barcelona, where he also creates what he calls olfactory sculptures. Fragrances as artistic creations open paths to the past and create doors from which the person who brings the fragrance into their life can generate new memories and experiences that escaped the artist, he writes on his website.
“Dark Souls” initially conjures up thoughts of warm, soft suede, which emerges from a shadowy, glowing, dark woody resin, with just a hint of animalic notes from civet and castoreum, which soon merge with the woody, mossy aromas of Cambodian oud. Sweet, liqueur-like Java patchouli adds further earthy warmth to the heart, before the nutty, earthy, leathery notes of cypriol become more dominant in the base, along with the smoky, earthy, greenish terpenes of Haitian vetiver and the woody, smoky earthiness of Sri Lankan vetiver. It has just the necessary edge at all times and remains absolutely wearable.
