Oh man, I’m going to have to Google. Rehan, copaiba, nagarmotha? What the heck are those notes?

Adding: I suspect “rehan” is a translation issue? But not sure.
Sounds lovely. Haven’t been at all interested in any other Agonist releases… hmm.
It’s hard, at this point, to get me interested in *any* new niche line. But I did think the Agonist scents I tried were really well done.
