The Story
Black Forest is a dark, resinous blend that captures the essence of a deep, ancient woodland. Thick black cherry and bitter almond give way to a heart of rich myrrh and smoky frankincense, all resting on a base of black amber and patchouli. It's a brooding, gothic scent that feels both comforting and mysterious.
