SPIRITUUM | Parfum botanique - patchouli, mousse de chêne, galbanum

Resin and incense and smokey earth, a magnificent scent that blends beautifully with Cuir Fétiche. The herbaceous notes are deep without being muddled—this is the Chartreuse of fragrances. The artist's skill with drawing forth each aspect without blurring or obscuring any of them is very much appreciated.

This is a stunningly deep and addictive scent, that to me is evocative of church incense, subtle earthiness and deep resinous warmth beneath the smoky chypre. There is definitely copal and it gives me the feeling of the scent of pinon incense or palo santo with a rounded warm base. I bought a sampler of all 12 of the parfums botanique and loved so many of them, but I kept returning to this one in particular - I just received a 10ml vial as a holiday gift and find it even more thrilling on that application. Would recommend for those who are fans of amber, resins, chypres, and incense scents. LVNEA is a beautiful indie perfumer, totally recommend to the scent curious.

This scent is my absolute favorite. I'm a bit obsessed with this perfume company, there's something so intoxicating and addicting about the perfumes. This one in particular I hope never is discontinued. It has a lovely woodsy/forest/mossy scent and an underlying sweet warmth, and by sweet I don't mean overpowering at all. I wear it when I want to feel cozy. I sometimes layer it with another favorite, Ghost Pine, and they compliment each other so nicely on my skin. Love!
