Olivier Durbano's Lapis Philosophorum starts with a thick, boozy rush of red wine and dark rum. Truffle adds a damp, rooty quality that feels like wet forest soil. As the scent warms on your skin, the initial booziness quietens down into a dusty, mineral incense. It smells like old stone churches, dry pine needles, and sweet resins.
