Devils Deceit - Apple, Oakmoss (Non IFRA Compliant), Ambergris, Bergamote, Bulgarian Rose & Jasmine Grandiflorum (Limited Edition of 100 Bottles) x 30ml

At the dawn of creation, when the Garden of Eden was pulsing with wonder and possibility, a man and a woman walked across dewy grass, and under flowering vines. Above these two figures glimmered a promise of endless innocence – a soft light draped in quiet splendour. Yet, curled up within the deep, unmoving corners of this paradise was a serpent, whose presence was subtle yet malicious. The serpent’s hiss was soft with the temptation of knowledge, but heavy with the consequences that come with it.

 Falling from the highest spires of heaven into the tranquil garden below, the snake’s whispers found Adam and Eve beneath the shade of a solitary tree, whose fruit gleamed with the sun’s early light. And as the fruit of this tree exhaled, a crisp, irresistible scent wafted through the garden—fresh, tart sweetness laced with a secret thrill. And then, a whisper in the air offered a seductive nudge toward forbidden knowledge. One taste, it hissed, and all would be revealed. This fragrance captures that moment of temptation—a vintage chypre spun around the allure of apple. In the opening, the crisp tang of orchard-fresh apple intertwines with the sparkling bite of bergamot, which brings to mind the garden’s pristine morning light. A velvety floral heart follows, with hints of rose petals, bruised with curiosity. These middle notes swirl like a serpent’s dance – both hypnotic and beguiling. As the scent settles, a deep, rich base of oakmoss, labdanum, and tonka bean cloaks the sweetness of the rose with the age-old sense of mystery and consequence.

This fragrance is the essence of innocence on the verge of guilt – an echo of that fateful yet fatal choice. Spiced undertones ripple through the final dry-down, and serve as a reminder of the price that comes with knowledge. A spritz of this fragrance is a journey into the Garden of Eden—an invitation to taste the crisp, forbidden fruit and feel the shadow of deception fall upon you. The vintage chypre soul resonates with that ancient longing, and weaves a story of temptation, marred innocence, and knowledge far too potent to be contained. Let this scent be your own little glimpse into a paradise, now lost.
