    Real talk

    Bloody Smoke earns its name. The opening tricks you with bright florals and minerals, then the frankincense-myrrh combination arrives like a gut punch. Not for those who want to smell pleasant.Bloody Smoke
    An indie fragrance with 12 base notes. Most houses would call that crowded. Hamlet calls it depth. The animalics arrive late and stay longer than you'd expect.Hamlet
