Description

At the heart of Joker lies an intricate dance of contrasts—a playful yet perilous blend that intrigues and bewitches. The core of the fragrance is driven by the indulgent sweetness of castoreum, both from the sac and refined into a sweeter essence, which imparts a deep, animalistic richness and decadent cherry note that is as compelling as the character it represents. This profound scent is nuanced by exquisite white ambergris, with its marine and animalic qualities that enhance the scent's complexity and longevity.

The introduction of the fragrance is as startling and unpredictable as the Joker himself, featuring top notes of freshly ground coffee beans and crushed cardamom. These spicy and invigorating scents are mellowed by the sweet, creamy richness of Mysore sandalwood and smooth vanilla, creating a mesmerizing first impression that draws you into a world of deeper intrigue.

As the initial notes settle, Joker reveals a heart of opulent florals and resins. Juhi, with its lush and velvety layers, intermingles with the exotic sweetness of jasmine sambac and champaca, providing a luxurious floral accord that captures the Joker's flamboyant charm. These are beautifully balanced with the dark, mystical touch of labdanum and massoia, which contribute rich, balsamic undertones that hint at the character's darker, more mysterious sides.

The complexity of Joker continues to unfold with the addition of mid-notes like nutmeg and geranium, which introduce a subtle spiciness and a touch of green crispness, respectively. These elements enhance the fragrance’s multifaceted personality, just as the Joker's own complexity keeps Gotham guessing at his next move.

The base notes are where Joker truly comes into its own, with a blend of rare ouds from Ache, Vietnam, and Borneo. Each oud contributes a distinctively deep, woody resonance that is both intoxicating and commanding. This rich foundation is supported by the robust, earthy tones of English oakwood and the sweet, tobacco-like aromas of ambrette seed, creating a finish that is both enduring and profoundly impactful.

The use of dark labdanum and chocolate in the final notes adds an element of decadence and indulgence, mirroring the Joker’s own hedonistic tendencies. These scents wrap the fragrance in a cloak of mystery, leaving a lasting impression that is impossible to ignore.

Joker mirrors the chaos and unpredictability of one of comic book history's most complex villains. Designed for those who appreciate the art of fine perfumery and embrace the darker, more mysterious sides of their persona. Like its namesake, this fragrance promises to leave a mark on all who encounter it, a lingering presence that haunts and tempts with its wild, untamable spirit.

OUR ALL NATURAL

Our Process

  • Step 1: the concept phase

    To encapsulate this entertaining villain you have to look at his characteristics. His energetic rush for chaos lead me to one key ingredient, COFFEE. There's no way anyone can get all that work done without guzzling loads of it. Coffee however, tends to be a dominating scent, while I wanted it to be the star of the stage I also wanted the scent to have depth and complexity. Bringing different facets to the forefront throughout the wear.

  • Step 2: expansion phase

    We used castoreum for the main animalic of this release because scent wise it fits perfectly with coffee. The subtle smokiness enhances the coffee giving off a freshly roasted scent. While the Sweet castoreum extraction adds some cherry nuances.

  • Step 3: Finalizing

    Now it was time to add depth and a backdrop to Joker. An amber accord adds a deep resinous scent rounding out the sharp strength of the coffee along with the use of french vanilla. Juhi adds a dark floral to the blend accompanying the jasmine in its journey to darkness. Finally the trifecta of ouds sends the king of jokes to a new dimension of trickery.

Our Ingredients

Coffee

The scent of coffee is rich, complex, and deeply evocative, captivating the senses with a wide range of aromatic nuances. At its core, coffee emits a robust, earthy aroma that is both comforting and invigorating. This primary fragrance is marked by a distinctly roasted quality, derived from the browning of coffee beans during the roasting process, which releases a bouquet of volatile compounds that form the essence of coffee’s signature scent.

Juhi

The scent of Juhi is exquisite and distinctively rich, often described as intensely floral, dark, and somewhat exotic. The primary aroma of Juhi jasmine is profoundly dark and creamy, almost a velvety texture on the olfactory senses. It carries a deep floral heart that is both soothing and uplifting, characterized by a pure and penetrating sweetness that can feel almost intoxicating. The fragrance is layered with subtle green and fruity undertones, which add a fresh dimension to its heavy floral bouquet. These nuances make Juhi especially captivating, as the scent evolves and reveals subtle complexities over time.

Labdanum

The scent of labdanum is multifaceted, characterized by its sweet, leathery, and slightly woody undertones. It opens with a rich, amber-like warmth, exuding a resinous quality that is both balsamic and slightly powdery. This initial impression is often accompanied by hints of earthy and animalic notes, which give labdanum its distinctive, almost mysterious depth.

Our Quality Speaks For Itself

Fact 1

Coffee contains over 800 volatile compounds, making it one of the most complex aromas in the food and drink world. Remarkably, these compounds are responsible for the rich, inviting fragrance that coffee lovers find irresistible. This complexity is why the scent of coffee can evoke such strong sensory and emotional responses, from alertness to comfort. Furthermore, research has shown that just smelling coffee can help to increase arousal, attentiveness, and even improve cognitive functions. This effect is so notable that the mere aroma of coffee can reduce the stress caused by sleep deprivation, according to studies.

Fact 2

Juhi, or Jasminum auriculatum, has deep-rooted significance in Indian culture and traditional ceremonies. Known for its intensely fragrant white flowers, Juhi holds a place of honor in Indian weddings, where its blossoms are often used to create garlands and adorn the hair of brides and other participants. These garlands symbolize purity, beauty, and prosperity, and are thought to bring good luck and divine blessing to the newlyweds.
