Belly of the Whale - Waterfall, Salt Water, Mandarin, Ambergris, Vanilla, Incense & Benzoin
Pickup currently unavailable
In the place where the horizon presses its lips against the mouth of the sea, there lies a tale. This tale is not about shipwrecks or storms; it’s about the journey of a soul, cocooned in darkness, and metamorphosed by destiny, a soul who took flight, and powered towards the great unknown. This is a tale about Prophet Yunus, captured in scent, where each note rings out like a siren's song, singing of a profound, yet silent odyssey.

The fragrance opens like a breath drawn at the edge of an abyss. The top notes rise swiftly, like the ocean’s first pull—salted mandarin and the cool, sharp bite of marine breeze. — salted mandarin and a cool sea breeze. However, the citrus is fleeting, much like the light that flashed across the sky as Prophet Yunus plunged into the ocean. The mandarin carries the essence of surrender, of being swept into a vastness so deep it feels like eternity itself. As the scent deepens, the waves crash down, and sweep you away into the heart of the fragrance, where the world outside fades. Driftwood, worn smooth by years of wandering the tides, intertwines with the briny sea moss, evoking the ancient stillness inside the whale’s belly. It is a place beyond fear, beyond time—a cradle of reflection where every wave that once roared now whispers secrets. Here, Prophet Yunus found not despair, but the quiet murmur of his own soul, wrapped in the deep, protective womb of the whale. And then, like a silent prayer rising from the depths, the base unfolds—myrrh, warm and sacred, like the essence of time itself, twining with the soft, ethereal touch of ambergris. The air is thick with reverence, as if every moment within the whale had been steeped in the slow, sweet resin of contemplation.
The incense carries with it the breath of redemption, the moment when Prophet Yunus was released from the darkness into light, forgiven and renewed. The scent lingers like the memory of a journey through the unknown, a reminder that even in the deepest abyss, there is grace.
"The Belly of the Whale" is not a fragrance to be worn—it is a fragrance to be experienced. Like the journey of Prophet Yunus, it is a pilgrimage into oneself, a reminder that true peace is found in the quiet, in the surrender, in the waiting. As the fragrance clings to the skin, it tells a story of descent, of stillness, of emergence—each note a reflection of the moments where we are engulfed by the flames of life’s trials, only to rise from the ashes, transformed. This is not just a scent—it is a journey through the deep, where the soul touches the infinite, and returns whole.
