| Hi all! I was wondering if any of you knew a scent currently available that's somewhat similar to Gehenna? It sadly seems to be out of stock at the moment, as it's a Fall scent. I'm not sure I want to go with straight Dragon's Blood, because I love SS's original work so much, but I'd like something along the same lines if possible. A couple of suggestions would be great so I can get a sample pack . Thanks! | |

Thanks! Monarch has red musk but it is a coniferous take on it rather than a dry smoky version. It has fir and instead of myrrh it has a bunch of frankincense. That is the next thing I would recommend trying: MONARCH Rich Red Musk, Fir, Juniper, Cedar, Frankincense, Labdanum, Moss NOT TO BE USED BY WOMEN WHO ARE PREGNANT OR NURSING. A statuesque lone stag stands at the edge of the wood, surveying the valley below. His antler crown and perfect grace convey nobility and strength. The monarch of the forest remains poised, cautious and wise through all seasons. Monarch starts with a base or refined red musk, a generous amount of fir balsam and a green botanical blend touched by smoky labdanum and oud. Frankincense resin, cedarwood and moss cover the base. A generous crown of fresh juniper berries and leaves completes the blend. Monarch smells like a coniferous wood blend with loads of incensey, exotic, spicy red musk and resins. It boldly opens with a bright green juniper on initial application. The fir, red musk and frankincense follow quickly behind. Cedar and moss weave in and out in the early stages after application and become more apparent as the wear continues. The smoky labdanum and oud float quietly in the background. This scent opens strongly on initial application but settles down after a few minutes of wear into a pleasant musky, resinous, evergreen, wood and slightly smoky fragrance. Monarch is a masculine scent, though women who like our wood blends should also enjoy it. | |
