A joyous celebration of La Catarina, La Flaca, La Muerte… Glorious, Beautiful Death. In Mexico, death is not something to be feared or hated; She is embraced, loved, and adored. La Muerte is fêted, as the celebrant “…chases after it, mocks it, courts it, hugs it, sleeps with it; it is his favorite plaything and his most lasting love.”
This is a Mexican paean to La Huesuda: dry, crackling leaves, the incense smoke of altars honoring Death and the Dead, funeral bouquets, the candies, chocolates, foods and tobacco of the ofrenda, amaranth, sweet cactus blossom and desert cereus.

I think I like it!
You can very much pick out the notes of hairspray, but it’s nostalgic for me lol. And it plays really nicely with the incense smells. It’s lighter than I expected, but reminds me of the one single goth shop in my small ass town

This perfume is bringing back scent memories of my teen years working at Hot Topic and spending too much time loitering around the mall, smoking where we shouldn’t have been. BPAL always works their magic, but I swear they went back in time and ripped this one straight from my edgy little teenage nostrils to create the perfect nostalgic scent.
