Why you'll love it

One of the most popular scents in the Naomi Goodsir collection, “Bois D’Ascèsce” smells like the most expensive country fireplace in the world. Rather than leaping out at you, ablaze with acrid, salty woodsmoke, this scent approaches calmly. It wafts from an old iron stove expertly tended by a gentleman farmer after harvesting a basket of obscure roots. Mysterious, slightly mystical, and quietly very confident, this is one of the most well-balanced, wearable smoke fragrances we’ve smelled. It feels like the crackling of a comfortable silence, a well-aged spirit swirling in a cut crystal glass, or the haze of a bonfire which swirls as a story begins to be told. Rustic and well-worn; a relic of a time when every object around was made by hand, perfectly imperfect.
