Hexensalbe
Hexensalbe by Stora Skuggan is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. The house lists its notes as absinthe, tuberose, rosemary, hemlock, oakmoss, licorice, angelica and patchouli, without saying which you smell first. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Listed notes
- Absinthe Bitter wormwood and anise. Green, boozy and slightly wicked.
- Tuberose Creamy, waxy and enormous. The loudest white flower.
- Rosemary Sharp, camphorous herb. Bracing and clean, borders on medicinal.
- Hemlock Dark, damp conifer needles. Softer and greener than pine, like a forest after rain.
- Oakmoss Damp forest floor. Bitter, green and the backbone of every chypre.
- Licorice Sweet anise with a dark, salty edge. Divisive and distinctive.
- Angelica Musky, herbal root. Earthy and a bit strange.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
