Bathos
EDPUnisex
The Story
Bathos is a bold, earthy fragrance that captures the scent of a damp forest floor. It opens with a burst of green galbanum and bitter grapefruit, then settles into a heart of rose and jasmine. The base is a rich blend of patchouli, oakmoss, and vetiver, creating a dark, grounding finish. This is a scent for those who love nature's raw, untamed side.
