D.S.\u0026amp; Durga looked to the funerary rituals of the early Mississippian Death Cult, the loosely connected network of tribes in America's regions around the 1200 AD, as the inspirations for the haunting yet comfortingly earthy Mississippi Medicine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMississippi Medicine opens with herbal, woody top notes of freshly gathered juniper branches, twigs, lichen-clad bark, and sweet grassy violet - damp, cool, and dense with a stunning realism. Birch tar emerges like smoke mingling up through the wood and herbs of the pyre before it is consumed in flames. As the birch smoke floats above the skin in wafts of muted, spectral, gray in the scent's unfolding, the base of dry cedar and frankincense grows stronger. And in the final dry down all that remains is that incense and the woody embers, like the ash that was left after the pyres died down; after the smoke had reached the gods above and only the cinders remain to be covered and buried back into the soil.","brand":"D.S. \u0026 Durga","offers":[{"title":"2 ml","offer_id":59132441559121,"sku":"SAMPLE_02266","price":12.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 ml","offer_id":59132441591889,"sku":"SAMPLE_02267","price":29.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 ml","offer_id":59132441624657,"sku":"SAMPLE_02268","price":56.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"15 ml","offer_id":59132441657425,"sku":"SAMPLE_02269","price":82.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20 ml","offer_id":59132441690193,"sku":"SAMPLE_02270","price":108.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1019\/4337\/8001\/files\/ea1d08_59f58832b3814f59863d634b7597b2a2_mv2.jpg?v=1771929005"},{"product_id":"sample-matiere-premiere-falcon-leather-edp","title":"Sample - Matiere Premiere - Falcon Leather (EDP)","description":"\u003cp\u003eIf the Matière Premiere collection was a menagerie, Falcon Leather would be the American bald-headed eagle, bristling with the raw masculine energy of a practiced predator. Opening with a gut punch of smoky saffron, which twists everything into the shape of a leather harness, Falcon Leather feels immediately powerful, like sinew shifting over bone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe coiled energy of the scent is further emphasized in the heart when a smoky, austere birch tar and a grungy but sleek oud join the party, darkening the background from saffron gold to a deep, oily black. The pungency of this saffron-birch tar accord is softened somewhat by the caramelized, incense-y sweetness of labdanum resin, which, given its starring role in fantasy amber accords, is the perfect way to talk the eagle down a bit from attack mode. Incredibly rich, pungent, and dark, Falcon Leather is tailor made for those for whom Tuscan Leather (Tom Ford) and Patchouli 24 (Le Labo) feel distinctly underpowered.","brand":"Matiere Premiere","offers":[{"title":"2 ml","offer_id":59132750561361,"sku":"SAMPLE_04901","price":12.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 ml","offer_id":59132750594129,"sku":"SAMPLE_04902","price":29.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 ml","offer_id":59132750626897,"sku":"SAMPLE_04903","price":56.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"15 ml","offer_id":59132750659665,"sku":"SAMPLE_04904","price":82.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20 ml","offer_id":59132750692433,"sku":"SAMPLE_04905","price":108.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1019\/4337\/8001\/files\/ea1d08_9005d22cbd664d648979c472605e2ebe_mv2.jpg?v=1771929879"},{"product_id":"sample-matiere-premiere-falcon-leather-extrait","title":"Sample - Matiere Premiere - Falcon Leather (Extrait)","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhen Aurélien Guichard first conceived of Extrait versions of the most popular entries in the Matiere Premiere collection, he knew that they had to be more than your average flankers. After all, the originals are already known for being built around a generous dosage of a precious natural central ingredient. So for the Extrait Collection, in addition to an increased concentration of both the overall fragrance and a specific increase in the dosage of the main ingredient, each Extrait has been given a bold new twist of a carefully selected new guest ingredient, chosen to work specifically with those characteristics enhanced by the stronger concentration to create something distinctive and unforgettable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFalcon Leather was already an absolute beast of a fragrance- combining the raw power of smoky birch tar oil and fiery saffron with a richly resinous base that accentuated the sheer potency of the fragrance just as much as it smoothed the edges off the pungency of the central accord. In the Extrait, Guichard only pushes that philosophy further, deploying a rare Indian Assam Oud oil that adds a deeper, funkier depth to the sweetly ambery resins, marking Falcon Leather Extrait as the boldest and most masculine of the entire Matiere Premiere collection. Novices should approach with the appropriate amount of respectful caution- but brave lovers of all things smoky, leathery, and oud will find a complexly layered and captivatingly intense fragrance unlike almost any other.","brand":"Matiere Premiere","offers":[{"title":"2 ml","offer_id":59132750954577,"sku":"SAMPLE_04906","price":16.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 ml","offer_id":59132750987345,"sku":"SAMPLE_04907","price":39.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 ml","offer_id":59132751020113,"sku":"SAMPLE_04908","price":76.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"15 ml","offer_id":59132751052881,"sku":"SAMPLE_04909","price":112.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20 ml","offer_id":59132751085649,"sku":"SAMPLE_04910","price":147.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1019\/4337\/8001\/files\/ea1d08_2d0c685d562f416cb06112a53351f0f3_mv2.jpg?v=1771929880"},{"product_id":"amouage-oud-ulya","title":"Oud Ulya Attar by Amouage","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe raw animality of the Oud Assam is sublimed by the intense smokiness of Birch Tar and tamed by a generous pour of Vanilla.
