The Gallows Ghost Atmosphere Spray

Thick snow banks, wet soil, and frost-caked wood shrouded in opoponax, labdanum, and birch tar.

Ok, so I like this a lot!

This definitely has almost a cool, Yule-like feel to it. It smells like mud, in a good way, kind of loamy and sweet, but not as pungent with mushrooms as Graveyard Dirt. So it's a bit rich, like Penny Dreadful-level soil, a grittiness. The wood is kissed with mint, but only enough to bring the snow/slush note forward. The tar component may be like a vetiver-ish smokiness smoldering under the surface. I can definitely detect the labdanum in the drydown, which mingles with the opoponax to create a pretty unique gummy resinous base. Over time it hovers in the air a smoky resin, more than an environmental scent, and it's a lovely darkness.

Sweet snow and fungus-y graveyard dirt. The labdanum and opoponax almost smell like root beer. Almost, but not quite. Then they subside and I mostly get a faintly smoky mint (which is the birch).

 

I also get almost! tobacco. The wood and birch may be contributing to that. It's too clean to be tobacco really, but that's what I'm reminded of.

Smoky resin, tobacco, and whiffs of dirt and snow. This is gritty, outside and smells like dirt overall.
