Vena Cava

Aroma palette is woodsy, floral, and metallic. Highlights include blackened orris, blood accord, black cherry Merlot, black agar, guaiacwood, fog, and ylang ylang.

This hauntingly beautiful fragrance conjures an olfactory vision of dark romance, lush red velvet, and blood.

Vena Cava unfolds its darkness with initial notes of orris, ylang-ylang, brooding oud, and blood. The blood accord is the heart of this fragrance —sweet, berry-like and slightly metallic. The deep, hyperrealistic blood note is anchored and made mystical by our black agar accord—a dark, resinous interpretation of aged oud. Guaiacwood adds a subtle burn beneath it all, like embers smoldering slightly under wet earth.

As the fragrance evolves on the drydown, a deep black cherry merlot gracefully emerges through the mist, adding a layer of decadence to the composition before it settles into a woody and metallic symphony with flourishes of dark fruits and shadowy florals.

Vena Cava is lush and darkly romantic, the kind of scent that you might find lingering on the skin of someone who has lived for centuries.

This is the artist’s August 2025 reimagining of Vena Cava, a new composition that refines the original concept. It is not identical to previous versions. Please read the description carefully before purchasing.
