🕸️ The Inspiration: The Abandoned Ballroom
Dried roses and withered macarons in a silent stone mansion; a sweet memory that has turned cold and dark. Ghost of Exes & Dust is the Gothic interpretation of the 2019 DNA. It mixes the Burnt Sugar with Cold Air and Wilted Petals. It is melancholic, haunting, and beautiful.
🧪 The Olfactory Architecture: Smoke and Bone
The scent opens with Icy Air Accord and Bergamot. The heart is Withered Rose and Burnt Praline. The base is Aged Patchouli and Dust Accord. It is haunting and evocative.
🌿 Raw Material Sourcing: The Dark
-
Cypriol: A smoky, earthy, inky note that adds a dark depth to the sugary heart.
-
Rose Oxide: For a metallic, blood-like cold floral edge that mimics the 'thorn' of heart-break.
🧠 The Scent Psychology: Mystery
Dark gourmands signal hidden depth and secrets. This fragrance is for the soul that finds beauty in the shadows of the past.

💭 From the Perfumer's Diary
"It smells like a memory you can't quite kill. Dust, smoke, and the ghost of a sweet fruit. Beautifully tragic."
