What it smells like
The story
Homa by Prin is a bold, animalic Oriental fragrance that delivers a powerful and transformative experience. It opens with a fierce, skanky blend of musk, civet, hyrax, and black pepper, evoking a raw, sweaty, wild presence—immediately striking and unapologetic. Yet, as it dries down, the fragrance transforms into a deeply smoky, incense-heavy, resinous scent with earthy green spice notes like turmeric, cumin, and kaffir lime. The drydown is considered unexpectedly wearable by many, offering a balanced, airy, and slightly floral softness that tempers the initial intensity. Its character is dynamic and contrasting: intense at distance, yet more nuanced up close, making it a deeply personal, theatrical experience rather than a conventional scent. The longevity and sillage are outstanding, especially for night wear, where it leaves a strong, memorable trail.
Fragrance Notes
What We Love
- Extremely long-lasting and powerful sillage, ideal for night wear.
- Transformative evolution across the wear cycle, with a dramatic shift from opening to drydown.
- Complex, layered composition that combines raw animalic elements with fresh, spicy, and woody notes to achieve a unique balance.
Worth Knowing
- Extremely intense and challenging opening, potentially offensive to sensitive or casual users.
- Overwhelming animalic character may feel too raw or skanky for many.
- The formula is heavily rooted in the original Aksum, making it feel redundant or derivative for those familiar with the earlier version.

PrissanaHaxan
Haxan is a deeply complex, earthy, and witchcraft-inspired aromatic fougere that opens with a vibrant, resinous burst of balsam fir, incense, styrax, and wild herbs, evolving into a lush, green forest floor of wet soil, moss, cypress, and aromatic wood tones. The heart reveals a layered blend of herbal spices — clove, caraway, saffron — cloaked in camphoraceous notes like mint and cypriol, creating a uniquely fresh yet darkly aromatic character. The drydown features a soft, magical animalic warmth — most notably a clean, powdered goat hair note intertwined with musk and castoreum — giving it a tactile, personal intimacy without feeling muddy or overpowering.
