This is made from fragrance oils and botanicals so you have to take it for what it is. They're inexpensive, fun and short-lived.

Hexennacht ("Witches' Night") is a deep foresty incense. It's not church incense at all - some of those are pretty somber - but filled with the quixotic smells of the forest, herbs, concoctions, earth and brews. It's quirky, almost like ‘Breath of God' in that way, though Hexennacht stays true to it's Hogwarts Potions Class spirit.
It has a head-shop nag champa note underlying it like a murmur, giving it a gravitas of relaxed hedonism (no WASPish manners thank you).
It's a fun, mysterious (but decidedly earthbound) scent. As the fragrance ages, the nag champa note comes out more as some of the dark forest elements dissipate. I like the first hour the best.
I really get with this fragrance the empowerment of the primal feminine, but also the empowerment of the primal masculine, so that's pretty cool.
Yes, it has that head-shop fragrance-oil vibe, but also has the magic some of those blends can produce, very, very far away from labs and master perfumers. So if you're okay with that, wear it on a summer night under a full moon, and let it work it's funky magic.
As with many fragrance oils, longevity isn't great - two or three hours - but really, that's as long as you want to dance under the moon. If you're really adventurous, reapply after two hours.
