The icy brush of herbs in the opening of MYSTERIOUS by Khalis sends a pleasurable shiver down one’s spine, painting a watercolor of a pale Northern European sun illuminating the lacy stalks of lavender, rosemary, and artemisia that have been caught in the first frost of the season. Silvery mint, oakmoss, and eucalyptus thrum from the background, keeping the real star of this scent – lavender – on ice. Indeed, MYSTERIOUS smells like you imagine it might taste. Part cocktail, part Medieval elixir, full of strange herbs and aromatics that are familiar individually but exotic when combined.
