Strigoi

From the Autumn 2021 UNDEAD COLLECTION

The Strigoi is commonly linked to vampirism, but its roots are more closely aligned with witches and sorcerers - originated from the Latin root strix, early associations referred to a more generic nocturnal flying creature who may or may not have eaten humans (and/or consumed their blood). Over the years legends have evolved and traveled, and by the 19th century the Strigoi was a staple of Romanian folklore more closely resembling vampires; it is commonly assumed that Strigoi legends played a large part in Bram Stoker's character development of Count Dracula.

What Is Legacy?

Each season, we bring smaller, curated collections of (typically) 12-14 fragrances out from the vault, giving you a chance to stock up on a past favorite or try something new from our extensive archives - all the way back to 2014.

Our Legacy collections are crafted in limited batches and are only available for purchase during their seasonal window. While we do our best to restock periodically during the season, some very popular releases may sell out before the season ends.
