The Raconteur Religious Guilt Spritz is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023. Religious Guilt Spritz settles into a heart of Blackcurrant Leaf, Cedar, Cypress, and Palo Santo, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood. The Raconteur's Religious Guilt Spritz carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

A truly evocative and well-loved fragrance that nails the 'old church' vibe without being cold or dusty. It's a comforting, intimate scent for personal enjoyment, though some wish for more projection.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Religious Guilt Spritz opens with a mysterious blend of redcurrant leaf and juniper, leading into a woody heart of cedar, sandalwood, cypress, and palo santo. Resinous myrrh and frankincense cast an atmospheric, spiritual glow, softened by a subtle rose, creating a warm, inviting, and slightly scandalous aura.
