Grimhildr is a mossy, lightly coniferous dark rose fragrance. Created for this beautiful and evil Viking sorceress, almost a rose soliflore: a profusion of blood red roses with dark musks, forest mosses, black silk, luxurious amber, delicate woods and Arcana's hand-extracted fir essential oil. Grimhildr is a limited edition eau de parfum, edp.
Arcana Wildcraft perfumes are indie, small batch handmade.
Reddit: "I was interested in this one because I've recently had good luck with rose scents in general (I can be quite picky about rose notes, but I think I'm coming to like them more), and because I'm absolutely obsessed with Arcana's silk note. This turns out to be a dark burgundy rose with black musk and a deep green evergreen note that reads like the rose's sharply thorned green stem. (And, boo, I don't actually get any silk.) This is exactly as brooding and gothic as I'd hoped. I really appreciate that this scent doesn't have any leather, patchouli, dirt, or oud to give it that blackened quality. For some reason, every time I sniff it, this scent calls to mind the rose of Disney's Beauty and the Beast. This will probably end up in the dark academia section of my autumn perfumes."
Arcana Wildcraft: "This fragrance is like a walk through the woods at dusk and you stumble upon a secret garden of blood red roses guarded by ravens. I’ve been on the hunt for the perfect rose fragrance, and after trying a lot, I think this is the best one on the market. I’m mad at myself for only getting the 10ml because it’s that great."
Arcana Wildcraft: "Smells like a perfectly red rose, surrounded by swirls of something dry and dark. Reminds me of roses in a funeral parlor."
Arcana Wildcraft: "This is so pretty. Deep red roses mixed with evergreen forest. Gothic, haunting, and altogether gorgeous. Great throw and longevity, as usual!"
