What it's built to smell like

By Kilian Straight to Heaven is rum and dried fruits at first, patchouli, nutmeg and jasmine at its heart and virginia cedar, vanilla and guaiac wood at the end. Perfume Parlour set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Top

  • rum
  • dried fruits

Heart

  • patchouli
  • nutmeg
  • jasmine

Base

  • virginia cedar
  • vanilla

For the one who wears rum-soaked patchouli and creamy woods like a signature, warm, boozy and quietly seductive from dusk till dawn.
