Hot Water

Wormwood and basil arrive with a sharp, herbal bite—green and slightly astringent—before Hot Water shifts into something warmer and earthier. Patchouli grounds the center while paprika adds a whisper of spiced warmth, creating an almost savory pulse. As it settles, styrax and benzoin emerge with a soft, resinous sweetness that rounds the edges without losing the fragrance's herbaceous spine. The effect is contemplative and grounded, neither quite fresh nor fully amber.
