Immerse yourself in the legend of our gourmand fragrance, Quetzalcoatl, the winged serpent god revered by the ancient Mayans. This enigmatic deity, depicted as a feathered serpent, symbolized creation, knowledge, and wind. Close your eyes and take a deep breath. The rich aroma that engulfs you is the essence of the sacred Mayan drink, xocolatl – the precursor to our modern chocolate. Spiced with warm cinnamon, the deep, roasted scent of cacao beans mingles with raw cane sugar, a touch of ginger's bite, and the nutty comfort of almonds. It's an invitation on a mythical journey.
As the top notes unfurl, feel the feathered wings of Quetzalcoatl lift you from the lush Mayan jungles. Soar above vibrant blooms of jasmine, their delicate fragrance a whisper on the wind. Below, verdant landscapes dotted with coconut palms sway gently. A hint of smoky whisky and buttery rum mingles with the creamy richness of the cocoa, a reflection of celebratory feasts held in the god's honor. This intoxicating blend is the heart of the fragrance, a swirling vortex of earthly delights.
Finally, the descent begins. The base notes emerge, a symphony of deep, earthy sensuality. Caramel, rich and smooth, evokes the comforting warmth of ancient bonfires. Sandalwood, with its warm, musky aroma, whispers tales of sacred temples and forgotten rituals. Dark vanilla, like the inky cloak of the night sky, adds a touch of mystery. The final whisper comes from the musks, a primal echo of Quetzalcoatl's connection to creation and the natural world. This captivating fragrance is your portal to a bygone era, a journey through the heart of ancient Mexico, forever linked to the legend of the winged serpent god.

There is something so incredibly comforting and warming about Quetzalcoatl. It is borderline addicting!
I don't typically enjoy gourmand scents because they usually lean towards an overtly sweet profile, but Quetzalcoatl is far from that as it blends a fair amount of warming spices to a deep and dark chocolate. To keep the fragrance from going too dark there is a near perfect use of jasmine to keep it balanced.
If you are looking for a beautiful chocolate fragrance that treads in the spicy end of gourmand then look no further.
This honestly one of the best and most unique fragrance I have ever smelled. Deffinitly signature scent worthy. This is one of the few fragrances that has a forever spot in my collection.
It’s a beautifully boozy scent. Will be perfect for winter weather.
