Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab (BPAL) Haute Macabre : Cemetery Collection Retail Exclusive Perfume Oil (Limited)
The Mummies of Mexico City is our latest addition to our Cemetery Collection, inspired by my visit to the Museo de El Carmen this past June. In an underground crypt beneath a monastery school dating back to the 1600s rest twelve naturally mummified bodies. Going down the staircase leading to the crypt, the temperature begins to drop and the air shifts from the heavy heat to a dry, earthy scent. Confronted by the mummies is the sharp juxtaposition from the angelic and opulent relics of the upper levels of the museum, reminding us of our own earthy boundaries, and that we shall all return to the dust.
Mummies of Mexico City contains notes of church incense, ornate gold, old lace, and dust. A sacred, secret scent, recalling residual whispers of incense settling into the ancient, forgotten dust.
Haute Macabre will be donating a portion of the proceeds from this fragrance to La Casa del Mestizo, a rescue foundation assisting the displaced animals after the recent devastating earthquake.
