Unguentum

Unguentum unfolds with a sharp, herbal spark—tea leaves and wormwood bite first, warmed by cinnamon and mandarin zest. The heart settles into something honeyed and antiquarian: candied grapes meet fermented tobacco while saffron threads through like spice-stained silk. Below, amber and opoponax create a resinous warmth that deepens into cedar and vanilla, grounded by a faint, skin-close musk. It reads like an old apothecary jar: aromatic, slightly bitter, deeply comforting.
