This fragrance, inspired by my 2019 journey to Bali, captures a truly unique experience that’s hard to define. Indo-Ink evokes the essence of an unforgettable moment in an Indonesian tattoo shop, where ancient traditions and modern artistry came together. The scent is a blend of rich, unexpected notes like leather, ink, and absinthe, but there’s much more beneath the surface.

Imagine an old-world tattoo parlor, where the air is thick with the scent of burning incense, the subtle musk of worn leather chairs, and the resinous fragrance that lingers in the room. Surrounded by shelves filled with old periodicals and fresh publications, this scent embodies the ambiance of a place that holds stories in its walls.

The fragrance was carefully crafted to capture the essence of this unforgettable place—its people, the atmosphere, and the feeling of sitting in a timeless space while an ancient temple tattoo is etched into your skin beside your Ganesh.

Notes: Mandarin, Ink, Resins, Absinthe, Ylang Ylang, Coumarin, Tonka, Leather, Incense, Saffron, Oud, Tobacco, Wormwood, Sandalwood.

Something about Absinthe -the mystery of absinthe stems from its historical reputation as a drink that could inspire genius or madness, its complex and ritualistic preparation, and its long-standing status as a forbidden elixir. While much of its mystique has been demystified by modern science, its cultural legacy continues to captivate and intrigue.

Pretty Sure I Just Shaved in a Tattoo Shop on a Volcano While Floating.

So there I was, on vacation in Bali, obviously. Im wearing linen pants, a silk shirt open way too far, and sunglasses Im not cool enough to own. A gecko winks at me. A monk hands me a coconut. Everything smells like paradise and possibly poor decisions.

Thats when I see it: a glowing doorway with smoke curling out, incense thicker than my dads mustache in 1978. I step inside and boomIndo-Ink.

The air is rich with leather, ink, and absinthe. A guy named Snake is getting a tattoo of Ganesh wrestling a tiger. Someones playing sitar jazz. I dont know where I am, but Im not leaving.

Then the scent hits deeper: mandarin and saffron, sweet but mysteriouslike a mango with a PhD in seduction. Tobacco and oud drift by like I just walked through a sacred cigar lounge inside a volcano. Someone offers me ylang-ylang tea. I accept. My soul leaves my body for a minute.

Suddenly Im shaving. The lather from the K2e base is smoother than a hammock woven by angels. My razor glides like its on vacation too. A dolphin outside gives me a thumbs-up. I dont question it.

When I rinse off, a breeze carries the scent of tonka, sandalwood, and warm inked-up dreams. I feel powerful. I feel mysterious. I feel like I might be late for a tattoo appointment with destiny.

Then I wake up. No plane ticket. No passport stamp. Just a tub of Indo-Ink, a flawless shave, and the faint memory of someone whispering, You smell like the sexiest incense burner alive.
