The journey into this olfactory treat begins with an irresistible blast of honey-dripped candy, a welcoming and sweet allure that instantly captures your senses, reminiscent of unwrapping that first piece of candy. The opening is a delicate yet intricate balance between rich labdanum, exotic jasmine sambac, and alluring ylang ylang, each element carefully chosen to highlight the nostalgic scent of red licorice candies, those timeless favorites that color many a childhood memory.
As the initial notes of jasmine sambac and ylang ylang begin to subtly fade, the fragrance seamlessly transitions into its heart, where labdanum continues to play a pivotal role. Here, it morphs into the soft, fluffy sweetness of cotton candy, evoking images of festive fairgrounds and joyous Halloween parades. This heart is not merely about recapturing the joys of youth; it's an olfactory celebration of the sweetness life offers at every turn.
Complementing the labdanum in the heart, the white ginger lily introduces a layer of sugary goodness, enriching the fragrance with its light, airy touch that perfectly encapsulates the essence of sugar spun from air. Then, as if to add depth and a mature twist to this youthful concoction, French oakwood infuses a slight booziness into the blend. This addition is sophisticated and subtle, reminiscent of the aroma that lingers in an emptied whiskey barrel, adding an adult complexity that contrasts beautifully with the playful heart.
As the fragrance settles into its base notes, it adopts a darker, more nuanced character. Chamomile, with its calming, herbal freshness, blends perfectly with the rich, creamy sweetness of vanilla and the robust warmth of tobacco. This trio creates a lasting foundation that ensures the fragrance's longevity, while also introducing a subtle darkness in the late dry down, reminiscent of the shadows that play on Halloween night. This darkness is not foreboding but rather comforting, like the soft end of an exhilarating night.
Enhancing this base is a touch of musk, which provides a sensual undertone to the blend, and a hint of exquisite Thai oud. The oud, rare and valuable, adds a luxurious, almost mystical quality to the fragrance, its woody, slightly animalic notes providing a compelling conclusion to the fragrance journey. This Variation also includes a large dose of Civet which enhances the florals throughout the wear and taking the original blend to a whole new level.
Trick or Treat is a multisensory experience that transports you back to the joys of childhood Halloween, enriched with the sophistication of an adult perspective. It's a celebration of the playful and the refined, capturing the spirit of Halloween in a bottle. Whether you're reliving your fondest memories or creating new ones, this fragrance is a tribute to the night of ghosts, goblins, and, of course, endless candy.

This exotic flower exudes a captivating fragrance that is both sweet and sultry, with a depth that enchants the senses and adds a luxurious quality to any fragrance composition. The primary aroma of red champaca is a lush, intense floral scent that is reminiscent of tea, with hints of fruity and spicy undertones. It’s deeply fragrant, with a heady, almost intoxicating quality that makes it stand out in a blend. The floral notes are full-bodied and can be described as a fusion between the floral sweetness of magnolia and the exotic spiciness of ylang-ylang. Red champaca also exhibits subtle nuances of green and woody notes, which add an earthy depth to its profile. These elements combine to create a multi-dimensional fragrance that is both opulent and serene. Its natural sweetness often carries hints of honey or ripe banana, enhancing its exotic appeal and providing a warm, comforting sensation.
The primary scent of ylang ylang is lush and intensely floral. It is often described as sweet and slightly fruity, with hints of jasmine and tropical fruits. The aroma has a creamy, custard-like quality that is both exotic and comforting. This richness makes ylang ylang a luxurious addition to any fragrance, providing depth and a sensual undertone. Ylang ylang also exhibits subtle spiciness that can remind one of cloves. This multifaceted profile allows it to blend beautifully with a variety of scents, enhancing floral bouquets and adding a rounded, tropical warmth to spicy and woody notes.
The primary scent of frangipani is intensely floral and sweet, characterized by a creamy richness that is both soothing and profound. It has a suave and velvety quality, with hints of jasmine, citrus, and spice subtly interwoven into the floral bouquet. This mixture creates a sensual and almost hypnotic aroma that can evoke feelings of warmth and tranquility. Frangipani's fragrance also carries subtle notes of peach, coconut, and a vague suggestion of vanilla, contributing to its lush and tropical profile. These fruity and gourmand nuances add a playful and inviting layer to the scent, enhancing its depth and making it irresistibly appealing.
Red champaca holds a special place in various Asian traditions. In parts of India, the flowers are used in religious rituals and ceremonies, considered sacred and often associated with romance and prosperity. The tree itself is frequently planted near temples and is revered for its spiritual significance.
ylang ylang, whose name means "flower of flowers" in Tagalog, has been used in elaborate grooming rituals, particularly in Indonesia, where the blossoms were soaked in coconut oil and used as a natural hair fragrance and treatment by the local women. This traditional use highlights its deeply floral, rich aroma that enhances hair health and imparts a lasting fragrance. Moreover, ylang ylang flowers are traditionally scattered on the bed of newlywed couples in Indonesia, symbolizing a sweet, romantic, and sensual start to their marriage. This custom showcases not only the flower’s enchanting fragrance but also its cultural significance as a symbol of love and romantic allure.
