HWY 190

This wax fragrance has become my winter go‐to base. The texture alone makes it different — once it’s on my skin, the wax warms with my body temperature and slowly releases the scent throughout the day. It’s dependable, steady, and honestly one of the best foundations for layering that I’ve found. The base is all about sweet vetiver and cedarwood, and that combination has real staying power. It gives the fragrance a grounded, woodsy backbone that lasts from morning chores to evening plans. On top of that, the freesia brings in a light floral freshness, just enough to brighten things without turning it into a “pretty” scent. Then there’s the pink pepper, adding a subtle little spark — not sharp, not spicy‐spicy, just a hint of lift. But the real stars are the myrrh and labdanum. They’re what give this fragrance its depth and that quiet intoxication. Warm, resinous, slightly smoky — the kind of notes that make you lean in for another breath without even realizing it. I can pick this scent out on people instantly; it has a signature presence without ever being loud. It’s completely unisex, too. Clean, warm, woodsy, a little floral, a little spicy — it hits that perfect middle ground that works on anyone. I think it leans a little feminine with freesia and orange especially for the top note and initial wear. As a base, it’s unbeatable. As a standalone scent, it’s inviting, long‐lasting, and quietly magnetic. Exactly what I want in the colder months.
