    Description

    Slumberhouse Kiste (2022) opens with a vibrant, boozy embrace of bourbon whiskey and sweet tea, brightened by juicy peach, honeysuckle, and elderberry. As it settles, a rich, savory tobacco note emerges, providing a warm and inviting heart. The drydown is a luxurious blend of golden honey, spicy nuances, vanilla, cocoa, and rum, creating a deeply comforting and resinous finish. This iteration is often described as richer, darker, and smoother than its predecessor, melting into a syrupy, gilded warmth on the skin. Perfumer: Josh Lobb
