Behique, from Renier Perfumes was released in 2019. The perfumer behind this creation is Christian Carbonnel. It has the top notes of Basil, Cannabis, Magnolia, Rum, and Tobacco Blossom, middle notes of Amber, Anise, Cashmere wood, Cedarwood, Patchouli, and Pepper, and base notes of Sandalwood, Tobacco, and Vetiver.
Oh, this is very much my thing. A dense, earthy, slightly smoky and deeply green concoction that smells like a handful of roadside vegetation, all free growing flowers and herbs, crushed to an impasto pulp. There's a subtle sweetness that's laced through it all, and it fades to a base of resinous wood, sapwood exposed and weeping.
Not, I suspect, a crowd pleaser, but it certainly pleases me and is kind of glorious, in its intense, funky way.
