Description
Description Coliva – Gourmand Potion by Adi ale Van is inspired by the Orthodox offering of boiled wheat, brought to church to honor a saint or remember the departed. It stands for faith in the Resurrection and for the unity of believers, held together as “Eternal Remembrance” is sung. Liquorice, olibanum, cardamom, cocoa and coffee open dark and incensed, then baked bread, iris and cedarwood lead into a base of labdanum, tonka, butter, amber and vanilla with a faint animalic musk. It’s a handmade Romanian gourmand where sacred ritual and sweet, resinous warmth meet.

Are these authentic?

Can I try it before buying a full bottle?
That's the whole idea. Everything here is a decant, so you try the real fragrance on your own skin before committing to a full retail bottle. Want a few at once? Build a Sampling Box of any five. See how decanting works.
