Bloody Wood
Unspecified
Bloody Wood, a fragrance inspired by the rich history and mythology of wine. Born of the vine, this scent embodies the duality between wine and life that has been celebrated since ancient times. Its notes evoke the passion and romance of lovers, as well as the conflicts and betrayals that can arise from desire. With a blend of white and red, cool metal and warm oak, and the heart of red berries, this fragrance is an olfactory challenge that will leave you breathless
