BPAL: CENTZON TOTOCHTIN
CENTZON TOTOCHTIN (Excolo): (Company says: The Four Hundred divine rabbits of the Aztec pantheon that preside over parties and drunkenness. Bittersweet Mexican cocoa with rum, red wine, and a scent redolent of sacrificial blood.)

In bottle: They are not kidding about the wine, though the rum is present too. The cocoa has the dry bitterness of baker’s chocolate. It really does smell vaguely of old blood, though I think that’ an artifact of resin mixing with wine. It is rather rank and repellent. Wet: Much as in the bottle, though the mix is more even, the dried blood stronger and the wine weaker, evening the whole thing out. Dry: Startling in a good way. It settles into incensey goodness with cocoa and… claws. I know, claws isn’t a scent, but this reminds me of bloody claws, dry and vicious and attention grabbing. I do love the dry down, but I can’t handle the way it smells to get there. It does have decent throw and staying power if you like something chocolate and vaguely unnerving in a good way and are patient enough to wait for it to settle on your skin.
