HUSK

Bitter sweetness and smoke settle in first, like a bar that has seen too many nights and is still standing anyway. This scent feels tired but sharp, built around bad habits, guarded loyalty, and the kind of honesty that shows up when the charm has worn thin.

Rum – Dark and boozy, warm with a rough edge. Long nights and coping mechanisms, confidence held together with stubborn survival.

Dark Chocolate – Rich and slightly bitter, dense rather than sweet. Cynicism with depth, indulgence that knows exactly what it costs.

Benzoin – Resinous and warm, softly ambery. Comfort found in familiar vices, grounding when everything else feels unstable.

Clover – Green and faintly sweet, almost clean. Luck, chance, and the quiet hope that things might still turn out better than expected.

It leaves the sense of a drink nursed slowly at the end of the night, cards on the table, defenses half down, and someone who pretends not to care watching more closely than they let on.
