Champa & Myrrh

A shadowed temple.

Pretty much what it says on the label.

Deep resinous myrrh with smoky champaca. If you're looking for a ceremonial resin type blend, look no further. Good throw and wear length.

Nag Champa tends to go Ivory soap on me, and this is no exception.  It's soap with resin.  Then just Ivory soap.

In the imp: the exact champa of every new age store I went to in 1995.

 

Wet: sweet myrrh (which I can never spell properly, if my journal is anything to go by), and a  slight gasoline-flower note. Little to none of the classic champa scent I got before I put it on my skin.

 

Dry: on me, this dries off to basically sing note myrrh, which is possibly something I ought to be grateful for.

 

Medium throw with a 6-8 hour lifespan.

 

Stars: ★★★

This starts out as straight-up champa incense, but after some wear, the myrrh amps up quite a bit, almost overtaking the champa and making the overall scent more resinous than smoky/incense-y. A little strong and dark for everyday wear, but I'll be hanging onto my decant.

On me, this one goes from a really dry, high, sharp champa down to an almost honeyed myrrh resin.  It's smokey and a little sticky in a good way on me.  Glad I got this one!

This smells like any/ every Nag Champa incense you've burned, and it throws like an olympic  athlete.  It's one of my favorites in its simplicity and familiarity.
