NEW: Andrea Maack - Coven!

Coven is the mysterious path of a dark supernatural world.

It is a journey into a secret enchanted woodland where nothing is as it seems, smells are wild, untamed and brave.



COVEN Notes: Galbanum, Clove, Cedar Wood, Oak Moss, Vanilla.



Coven was launched in 2017.

Hasn't this been out for a while? I have an old sample of it from way back.

Yeah, this came out about four years ago. The bottle pictured above is different, though. Maybe it's a re-launch?

Maybe they changed it up and made it wearable this time around.

I have a sample of the one that has been out for some time. Ghastly thing that smells very much like mud.

Perhaps this one is a different concentration. I don't remember offhand if the original was an EDT or not.

You got that right, Doug.

Just tried a small swipe from a sample I recently received of this newer version of Coven (I haven't smelled the older round bottle version), and I found it quite enjoyable. A hint of dirt/soil and a greenness which reminds me a bit of Zoologist Elephant. Spicy clove and wood (Burnham Wood, perhaps?). A pleasant smelling group of enchantresses.

Given a full wearing, I detect a vegetal, earthy patchouli reminiscent of Andy Tauer's Patch Flash.

I like the smell of mud. This (and most of her line) interests me.

It got a great review from Turin in the new Guide.

It's listed with only three ★★★

...but the text is more enthusiastic. He called it her best work, with a "delightfully wet-green earthy accord" and "nice work". Perhaps a typo on the rating?

I thought her Coal was very good. Haven't smelled any of the others.

Bump
Anyone wearing this in 2023?
I always wanted to try it…
