The story behind the bottle.
Josh Meyer's Bull's Blood 2nd Edition by Imaginary Authors, launched in 2023, is a bold and complex fragrance that defies easy categorization. It opens with the rich, smoky notes of tobacco and warm spices, creating an immediate sense of depth and intensity. The heart of rose and patchouli adds an unexpected layer of sweetness and earthiness, while the powdery musk base grounds it all in a familiar yet intriguing warmth. This composition is as much about contrast as it is about harmony, making each wear an exploration of olfactory nuance.
Apply this fragrance with intention — one or two sprays are enough to capture its full depth. The warm spices in the top notes dissipate quickly, so wait a moment for the heart and base notes to emerge before stepping out.
