Saints Tears - Extrait of Forgiveness

Inspired by the childhood home of the creative director/perfumer this is through and through a niche experience.Supposedly inspired by an old rural church with centuries of burnt candles and incense creating an unique smell and ambience it has a clear vision off what it wants to be. The scent itself smells like slightly damp and dusty air blended with an authentic smelling incense, reminent of the type burnt at some concerts or in chatolic churches. This is definetly aimed more as something you wear for yourself and personal plessure rather than daily public use.It's succesfull in recreating the scene described and for that the perfumer deserves credit, as it's very well executed.Personally i use it to get in a relaxed state of mind or as a room spray for pure ambience and well being. Presentation is a solid 10/10, hand painted bottles, painted wooden box and leather details? And locally made by the area its inspired by, can't get much more fun to unbox than that. All in all a solid option if you're looking to try the creative kinda niche or a good incense scent.

Had it for a year and am still head over heels for it. Smoky church incense, something herbal somewhere in there too. There is a powderyness and a warmth to it. Potent with good silage- maybe my favorite from this artist with urma vie as a close second. Cold weather brings out the best of it but I find it enjoyable year round. The travel size bottle is also stunning.

If anyone wants to buy a decant let me know as it's not something you can easily find :)

on me there is a little more amber than i love in my incense, and strangely an almost torrefied chocolate note. nice beautiful woodiness though, smells like a chorus of pews patina ed with the passage of time and many application of beeswax to preserve them. a bit dusty too.

This is church incense without being too sweet or smokey. It is very resinous and with the dry down, you get a lot of the cedar.
