Scents similar to Makhanitis and Prospero

Recommended Posts

I am in love with Makhanitis and Prospero. :wub2:

 

The plum and wine notes make me swoon. I must have more BPAL oils that are similar to Makhanitis and Prospero.

 

Any suggestions?

 

Thanks!

Those scents are two of my favorites. The one I found to be the closest to Makhanitis, if you like patchouli, is Urd, in the Excolo line of the GC: Muscadine, black and red patchouli, cereus and nag champa. Urd is more headshoppy than Makhanitis, but I find the wine note very similar.

 

Also, if you don't mind some chocolate, another one I really like is Centzon Totochtin , also a GC in Excolo: The Four Hundred divine rabbits of the Aztec pantheon that preside over parties and drunkenness. Bittersweet Mexican cocoa with rum, red wine, and a scent redolent of sacrificial blood.

 

And another good wine scent is the LE The Zadok Allen Vineyard, which was a Lupercalia scent, but decants show up for sale on the forums fairly often. A deep velvety Cabernet Sauvignon with hints of plum, black cherry, rose petals, coffee bean, and smoky oak. Barrel and bottle aged, with a smooth and spicy hit mid-palate. Hints of Dagon's tarry black incense and clotted blood complete this well-rounded, robust indulgence.

You and I are definitely scent sisters! :wub2:

 

I love Urd and Centzon Totochtin. I have not had the chance to try The Zadok Allen Vineyard, but would love to give it a try.

 

Thank you for your suggestions!

I don't like wine, but love plum.

 

Berry Moon 2011 gave off a whiff of berries before going all boozy on me, but it may work for you!

 

On the other hand, Countess Willie was a perfect balance of amaretto and plum musk (and spices), and is one of my favourite scents.

 

I haven't tried Bette Noir, it only has plum and no wine, but it may work too.

Athens might be a go for you. It's crazy red wine and cooking herbs on me. It woudl definitely work well on the right person.

Also Cockaigne if you're after cake and wine. :)
