Maqueda Perfume Rigor Mortis is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2026. Rigor Mortis opens with Wine Grape, Neroli, Lily Of The Valley, and Chrysanthemum, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Beeswax, Labdanum, and Rosemary, and dries down to a base of Civet. Maqueda Perfume's Rigor Mortis carries an Acquired verdict, a white floral-led wear.

This is a truly divisive perfume, a challenging art piece designed to provoke rather than please. It's a love-it-or-hate-it creation for the boldest among us, certainly not a blind buy unless you thrive on controversy.

Best Occasions

This perfume is utterly inappropriate for almost any occasion. Its intensely challenging and polarising nature means it will likely offend most people in any public or shared setting. It's truly for personal artistic exploration, not social wear.

About

Rigor Mortis opens with a sharp, almost mentholated floral sting, mingling neroli and lily-of-the-valley with a bitter, herbal rosemary undertone. A waxy, animalic heart of beeswax and civet emerges, deepening into a starkly musky foundation that evokes something clinical and unsettling, far from your usual comforting base notes.
