THE ALCHEMY
Notes of charred clove and crushed pepper flicker first, while burnt maple leaves a fleeting, bittersweet trace.
A heart of intoxicating black rose is wrapped in sensual labdanum. Beautiful even in decay, its singed petals are darkened by earthy patchouli and smoky vetiver.
Birchwood tar and guaiacwood recall the unmistakable intensity of a once all-consuming fire, now faded to smoldering embers. The smoke softens just enough to reveal the ghost of rose beneath the ash, haunting like a love that won't let go.
