Slumberhouse samples part 2 and the beginning of a beautiful friendship
Picking this up right where I left it… Vikt is a smoky and slightly animalic scent. It is smoky enough to make you think that this is a vetiver scent. A fresh cut wood note starts poking through the smokiness

Technique Indiscrete sampling
