Rigor (Patchouli, Burnt Cedar, Rum)

TOP NOTES

• Rum: A burst of aged spiced rum, warm and intoxicating, bringing instant heat and the promise of danger. It opens like the first pull from a flask on a moonless night — smooth, sweet, and laced with the faintest burn.
• Seaweed: Adds an eerie maritime realism — briny, saline, and faintly green. It conjures the scent of kelp-draped hulls, saltwater mist, and the ghost of the sea clinging to leather and wood.

MIDDLE NOTES

• Tobacco: Rich, smoky, and warm — like a pirate’s pipe left burning in the captain’s quarters. Balances the salt and spice with comforting depth, wrapping the heart of Rigor in dark amber sweetness.
• Black Musk: Smooth and animalic, lending a primal magnetism. It weaves through the blend with a shadowy sensuality, grounding the composition in quiet menace and dark charm.

BASE NOTES

• Dark Patchouli: Earthy, resinous, and damp — evokes freshly turned soil and decaying leaves after rain. It anchors the scent with graveyard richness and eternal weight.
• Burnt Cedarwood: Smoldering embers and charred wood. This note lingers like the aftermath of a shipfire — smoky, dry, and hauntingly familiar — the final breath of the beast before silence.
