Forgive Us Our Virtues, Forgive Us 2024

Recommended Posts

 

Pale frankincense, styrax, East African black patchouli, cinnamon leaf, rosewood, and palisander.

 

Who has known all the evil before us,

Or the tyrannous secrets of time?

Though we match not the dead men that bore us

At a song, at a kiss, at a crime–

Though the heathen outface and outlive us,

And our lives and our longings are twain–

Ah, forgive us our virtues, forgive us,

Our Lady of Pain.

A soft, sweet frankincense with a mix of spicy herbs. Really well blended - I can't pick out individual notes. Patchouli and cinnamon take turns peeking around the edges, but never stealing attention from the whole. It's basically everything I'm hoping for in a frankincense scent that feels solemn, comforting, and ancient, without being church incense.

 

Settles quickly to a soft skin scent after applying, and did not morph or fade further. Very low throw - the huff is gorgeous, though.
