Souichi's Selfish Curse

Souichi's Selfish Curse by Phronema Perfumes is a fragrance for women and men. This is a new fragrance. Souichi's Selfish Curse was launched in 2024. The nose behind this fragrance is Weston Adam. The fragrance features Civet, Bitter Almond, Benzoin, Tonka Bean, Heliotrope, Vanilla Absolute, Bark, Mysore Sandalwood, Star Anise, Ambergris, Cinnamon, Opoponax, Oakmoss, Jasmine, Vetiver and Rose. Prepare yourself for a truly untamed allure, one we have named Souichi's Selfish Curse. Many fragrances promise to bring the wearer to the wild and the forbidden, but Souichi's Selfish Curse actually does... In this creation, animalic sensuality meets luscious fruits, conjuring a fragrance that truly does the primal intensity of the animal kingdom. At the heart of this enchantment lies Civet Absolute—raw, unapologetic, and deeply primal. A note so rarely used in all of its glory, and so savagely evocative that it sends shivers down your spine with its unapologetic power, softened ever so slightly by the creamy richness of Mysore Sandalwood and Vanilla Absolute. Like the Junji Ito's Souichi - with whom this fragrance shares its name - the fragrance is the black sheep of an already dark fragrance family. It's one which causes trouble, and whose juicy red fruity accords remind the wearer of the blood problem which Souichi has - the cause for his iconic oral nail fixation. The drama of the fragrance continues past the savage civet to the haunting sweetness of Heliotrope entwined with a burst of cinnamon bark and clove, giving the composition an irresistible bite. Bitter almond and Tonka Absolute add a luscious gourmand touch, making the scent feel as indulgent as it is untamable. As the fragrance settles, the dark, resinous depths of opoponax and benzoin resinoid reveal themselves, wrapping around oakmoss and vetiver in a smoldering embrace. The drydown lingers with an air of mystery, where white ambergris and guaiacwood whisper of ancient curses and untold stories. Souchi’s Selfish Curse is not for the faint of heart. It’s a decadent, animalic masterpiece that draws you in with its seductive jasmine and rose touches but keeps you captive with the raw heat of civet and cinnamon. This fragrance challenges the notion of beauty, keeping the wearer flipping through the notes as a reader would flip through the pages of Ito's master works. This is a curse you’ll want to wear—a scent that captures the animal within and unleashes it into the world. Let yourself be consumed
