The highest function of Love is that it makes the loved one a unique and irreplaceable being. (Tom Robbins, Jitterbug Perfume)
Ancient texts speak of the Jitterybug cult, an elusive sect that believed Pan never truly died. Their sacred scriptures tell of Kudra, a master perfumer, who created a fragrance known as K23—a perfume designed to conceal the unmistakable scent of Pan. Because, let’s be honest—Pan is the god of wild nature, herds, and flocks, and, well… let’s just say, goats are not known for their delicate fragrance. Especially the males. If you have ever visited a goat pen, you will understand why creating a perfume strong enough to mask Pan’s presence was no small task. Creating a perfume suitable for a god is a serious task—especially when the goal is to hide one of the most pungent and musky deities around. Kudra had to draw upon the rarest botanicals, the richest resins, and the most potent aromatics to weave a scent that could cloak Pan’s very essence. Was K23 simply a legend, or could it still be out there, hidden in the formulas of ancient perfumers?
Key Ingredients of the K23:
- Beetroot Extract
- Horny Goat Weed Extract
- Leather Fragrance
- White Musk Fragrance
- Oud Fragrance
- Amber Fragrance
- Jasmine Sambac
These fragrances embody the primal, sensual essence of the god Pan:
- Leather symbolizes flesh and blood, raw and untamed.
- White Musk exudes earthy, animalistic sensuality, reminiscent of natural pheromones.
- Oud, also known as agarwood, is derived from the resinous heartwood of the agar tree, found in the dense forests of Southeast Asia, India, and Bangladesh. A result of fungal infection, this rare and precious scent is extracted through distillation or melting of the resin. Its deep, enigmatic aroma mirrors Pan’s magnetic and untamed nature.
- Amber is a ‘fantasy’ note in perfumery—a warm, powdery blend of natural and synthetic ingredients like vanilla, patchouli, labdanum, styrax, and benzoin. Just as Pan embodies the wildest dreams of Mother Nature, amber’s intoxicating sweetness evokes a sense of myth and mystery.
This unique blend captures the untamed, alluring spirit of Pan—earthy, carnal, and utterly irresistible.
