How does it perform?
From 15 community ratings, all out of 10.
Holds up through the day and fades gently toward evening.
Leaves a light trail and stays polite in a crowd.
Sits nicely on a shelf.
The price makes you think, so a small size is a smart start.

What does Häxan smell like?
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close to the skin without filling a room. The number of votes is small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. Being unisex, it reads neither distinctly masculine nor feminine.
It opens with osmanthus absolute. In the heart, oakmoss absolute and Turkish rose set up a floral and earthy balance. The base of musk and fossilised amber sweetens the scent and leaves a resinous, faintly smoky warmth, while the fresh accord keeps a light lift over it.
