DS&Durga's Mississippi Medicine is a captivating unisex fragrance launched in 2011, crafted by David Seth Moltz. Drawing inspiration from the rituals of the proto-Mississippian death cult of the 1200s, it weaves a complex olfactory narrative. The fragrance opens with an arresting blend of red cedar, aldehydes, and frankincense, leading to a heart of cypress root, black pine, and cascarilla bark. At its base, it rests on notes of incense, Spanish cade, and birch tar. The scent can be described as an amber woody fragrance, perfect for all seasons and times of the day. It carries undercurrents of dark woods, with emphasis on cedar, smoky cade, and birch tar, presenting an unsettling yet meditative experience softened and deepened by warm incense notes. Freshly gathered juniper, lichen-clad bark, sweet grassy violet, and birch tar smoke contribute to its stunning realism, making it a truly unique addition to any fragrance collection.
