Terror & Magnificence Eau De Parfum
Terror & Magnificence Eau De Parfum. Contrasting darkness with invigorating complexity, Terror & Magnificence takes its inspiration from the notorious Georgian architect Nicholas Hawksmoor.
Like Hawkesmoor's architechtural creations, Terror & Magnificence tips its cap to Ancient Egypt, combining church incense, candle wax, papyrus and kyphi with a wet stone accord reminiscent of that first downpour in London after a hot summer.
