Smell Like A King

Smoke curls through the air like a slow evening that refuses to end.

There's leather and something burning — tobacco warming over embers, the bite of wormwood cutting through it all like a blade through velvet. Cypriol roots it in dark, wet earth. Cedar draws it tall and dry. Patchouli spreads low beneath everything, resinous and grounding. The overall effect is nocturnal and unhurried — a room after midnight, heavy with the kind of atmosphere that takes years to build. This is a deeply earthy, smoky world, and it wears its darkness without apology.

Notes: Wormwood Oil, Absinth, Cypriol, Virginia and Atlas Cedarwood, Tobacco, Patchouli

Experimental Perfume Club is a London-based fragrance house and open-access perfume laboratory founded by French perfumer Emmanuelle Moeglin, who trained at the renowned ISIPCA perfume school in France.

Imagined as a way to demystify fine perfumery, the brand creates unisex, vegan and cruelty-free eaux de parfum designed either to be worn alone or artfully blended, inviting wearers to compose their own signature scent from its Essential and Signature Blends collections.

Its perfumes are imagined in London and crafted in France using ingredients sourced from Grasse, and the company is certified as a B Corporation, reflecting a commitment to eco-conscious practices and refillable, low-plastic packaging.
