Hekate is the Goddess of night, the Goddess of witches, spells & magic. This fragrance captures the darker aspects of perfumery & draws inspiration from the fragrant materials of autumn. Dark & mysterious, full of resins, spices & woods, Hekate invokes the darker aspects of nature powerfully. It opens with heady fir balsam, dried apricots & mulling spices. The heart then swells with notes of honey, cedarwood, cypress & patchouli. Base notes of Castoreum, Cambodian Oud, Myrrh, Orris root, and sandalwood lend to a long, luxurious dry down that offers a changing nuance to explore. This is a dark, rich fragrance that takes hours to develop and evolve on the skin. Experience the mystery, beauty & power of the Dark Goddess this Samhain with this rare Autumnal release.
