The Story
A Hellish Scourge is a dark, resinous blend that evokes ancient rituals and shadowy temples. The opening is a sharp burst of myrrh and wormwood, bitter and medicinal. As it settles, a smoky, leathery heart emerges, underpinned by a base of black amber and vetiver. This is a fragrance for those who crave the strange and the sacred.
