by Alkemia Perfumes
Haunted & Bewitched Alkemia is a lush, feminine gourmand with deep amber, floral, and gourmand notes that unfold like layers of silk. It opens with a warm burst of pink pepper and caramel, balanced by musky ambrette and sweet vanilla, evoking a rich, powdery, Middle Eastern elegance. The core features rose, jasmine, and patchouli, creating a sensual, slightly incense-laced aura that feels regal and earthy—like a princess wrapped in a velvet cloak. Over time, it settles into a soft, creamy, rosy caramel dry-down: warm, sweet, and remarkably wearable. The scent lingers well into the night and projects moderately, making it a standout for evening wear. It’s not archetypal red lollipop sweetness despite some comparisons—instead, it feels layered and complex, like a candle shop during Halloween or a dreamy Turkish delight. It appeals most to those drawn to sweet, ambery scents with a spicy twist, especially those who enjoy gourmands with an oriental soul.
