Molfar is how Ukrainians in the Carpathian region call local wizards and magicians. Molfars traditionally live a solitary life in the woods, protecting nearby villages from local malicious spirits and providing healing. Molfars would often be knowledgeable about supernatural forest dwellers and help regular people to avoid their tricks, and are experts on everything that grows and inhabits the woods. He lives on the edge between nature and humanity, between mundane and magical.

This scent perfectly embodies the woodsy magical nature of Molfar's life. It's earthy and mushroomy, but you can feel the forest greenery above and a happy sparkling spring nearby. It plays with the perfect balance of dark things from the mud and shiny rays of sun gleaming through the canopy and reflecting in the water. This is the picture of nature itself, cosy and cyclical, but also always magical and full of whimsy.

This scent dances on the edge of wearable: its green, fresh, aquatic. But also muddy, moist, and musty. I'm under the impression that it only works if you believe in magic. But then it will definitely shine.

      You're very welcome! It's a fun one because it's somehow musty and fresh at the same time.
