Holy Oak

Thanks for adding this one fragrantica 🙏 Wonderful fragrance from lvnea, this smells like the description says, photorealistic damp wood cabin in the forest. It’s dirty but beautiful. As it dries down it begins to remind me a bit of creeds royal oud which was a pleasant surprise. It’s like if Royal oud rolled around in the mud, which may not sound appealing but it really is a gorgeous scent that works. For me at least. The fact that lvnea uses natural ingredients that aren’t harmful to you is a huge bonus. Foret dormante and ghost pine are my other two favourites from the house, highly recommend checking out their store in Montreal if you have a chance.

Now that's a proper cedar scent! Rainy forest, 100% photorealistic (I generally love botanical perfumes for their realism). Dries down to cold frankincense and a faint wet rose. Gorgeous... I am so happy I finally got to try LVNEA, I wanted to for so, so long <3 The longevity is that of a standard botanical perfume, up to 6 hours on my skin. I am obsessed, cannot stop sniffing my wrist!

A walk in a Scandinavian pine forest where someone has been camping, their bonfire is still smoking even though it was put out an hour ago. You feel comforted in the shelter of tall dark trees, the moss underfoot is soft and welcoming. I feel I can only wear this with darker clothing

Ran out of the sample fairly quickly because a) i loved spraying lots and lots of it when wearing it and b) i liked it on my partner sprayed it on him a lot. To me this is the smell of the Twin Peaks intro and walking past a sawmill near a river surrounded by forest.

Photorealistic burning lug fire in a cabin. Smell of the fire smoke
