Pumpkins Crave Terror

I love pumpkin in fragrance and Arcana's pumpkins always top my list of favorites. The notes listed here are a little off, this is actually a combination of Arcana's pumpkin spice and their Holy Terror accord which is burning frankincense, myrrh, and dusty beeswax candle. This is a very resinous, deep and warm fragrance, the frankincense is amazing here in the way it provides a penetrating incense-like vapor cloud for the pumpkin spice. The myrrh and beeswax add a lot of character and depth. There is a little sweetness but to me it's more like residual honey, not full on gourmand sweet and there is no bakery accord. This smells like walking into an ancient space steeped in incense where someone is baking a spiced pumpkin and there are candles burning. It's deep, a bit dark, gothic, unique, very atmospheric and yummy. It also performs well, as most Arcana oils do. It has good sillage and pretty good longevity on my skin. I like layering this with other spicy, resinous and incense fragrances like Lattafa Ragbha or Oud Mood, KM Olibanum, Mugler Alien Essence Absolue, YSL Opium, etc.

Smells like fresh from the oven cinnamon rolls. This is so good! I want to eat my arm, that’s how real it is.
