About

Myths Man opens with an intensely smoky blast, quickly joined by the earthy, slightly bitter chrysanthemum and powdery orris. As it settles, a boozy sweetness from rum emerges, interwoven with vetiver's green woodiness and a subtle rose. The base delivers a rich, true leather accord, deepened by labdanum and a lingering, realistic ash, creating an evocative and complex scent profile.
