This perfume can be likened to a Film Noir plot; it’s as dark as a dim-lit alley in Chinatown and musty as the sewer in The Third Man where the ambivalent heroes and heroines find their inevitable death, over and over again. Film Noir is as dark as the soul of the genre's screenwriters, directors, actors and viewers. In fact, it is so dark that it includes only the deepest base notes, and nothing more: cruelly luscious dark cacao absolute, musty-sweet patchouli and the mysterious bitterness of myrrh. Topless... Heartless... Film Noir is made of base notes only!
Notes: Myrrh, Benzoin, Cacao Absolute, Five different types of patchouli, including Dark Patchouli, Patchouli CO2, and Antique Patchouli
Fragrance Families: Gourmand, Opulent Woody (Patchouli soliflore)

Botanical incense pastilles designed for each one of the seven ancient planets.
This series of these resin-based, monastery-style incense pastilles is the result of close to 20 years of researching the botanical symbolism and alchemical traditions of each planet, and creating the best depiction of these planetary energies.
SATURN NERIKOH
(Japanese Pastilles - for heating only)
Ironically, the harshness of reality hits when reaching the planet that is furthest away from earth. Saturn is often perceived as our challenges, burdened with rigidity and stiffness. On the other hand, it is through this strict form that our innermost intentions will manifest.
Saturn's incense is deep with dark myrrh resin, cedar, cypress, patchouli, cassia, vetiver, agarwood and a touch of honey to balance its heaviness.
Burn on Saturdays, or when you require grounding, material wealth, support as well as discipline to achieve your goals.
Please note: This is Japanese-style Nerikoh, which are honey-based and are meant for warming on a mica plate, aromatherapy lamp or a designated electric incense heater; they are NOT resin- pastilles for burning on charcoal.

Stubborn and determined as a bull is the sign of Taurus. It is also a sign of beauty and strength. Taurus is an Earth sign ruled by Venus. Being a fixed sign it is also associated with Air to some extent (hence the use of the bit of lavender) or the principle of sulphur. The oils chosen are earthy and representing the abundance and beauty of earth.
