Hermit Coat

As a lover of fragrances that are both powdery and smoky, I saw the accords and ordered a sample the day this dropped on Lucky Scent, many months ago. It didn't really move me so I never reviewed it, but I've revisited it a few times. Smoky candlewax lightened by heliotrope, cold stone walls of an abandoned church. Thankfully very light ash or rose. Easy to appreciate, and more approachable than Relique D'Amour by Oriza L. Legrand which also has an old church vibe, and more hopeful than other popular church incense fragrances like Avignon which overdose on cedar. For me, not full bottle worthy but I would recommend others try it. If I had found this early in my perfume journey, I would have been transfixed. "A dark ashes clothes with an eremitic look. As a hermit coat, amber, balm and smoke cover fir balsam. A captivating fragrance with it's powerful vocation of the scent of roaming incense."

metalic leather , robotic animal my fathers oxfords with shoepolish slipped inside. he didnt need em often enough to not clean them between wears. this smells like a room , not one ive ever been in , but a room for sure . as far as there are perfumes like nature and perfumes like pastries , i believe there are perfumes like rooms. this room is more of a shed , tucked in a dry , dying wooded area , no more fresh pine needles , only faint resins wafting in from fallen trunks . theres tools on the wall , all with pittle leather cases so the air doesnt ruin their blades ... quite a waste seeing as the sun doesnt shine here ... i get none of the notes listed besides leather and metal , maybe a bit of smoke , but not anything like incense or tobacco ?

For such a cheap perfume, this offers a really lovely, quality incense and resin bouquet, it's totally unique and doesn't have any scratchy, cheap smelling crap underneath. The only gripe I could have is that it doesn't last too long but for the price I'm happy to reapply. The soapy, elemi opening with its light floral tones puts me in mind of vintage Amouage, like maybe silver man and/or opus I.

I blind bought this, and I have no regrets. It is Incense heavy, which I was expecting, as that is the theme of the brand. It is dark and slightly sweet. It does not smell like my other perfumes at all. The lavender and Heliotrope on top is brilliant.

Very comforting hermit vibe. Gummy incense with slight fir and wild flowers. Balsamic and round perfume that I wear to get cozy. When I overspray it, I get a very elegant smoke that lasts all day on clothes.
