The dogged prospector strikes gold. Upon discovering a payload rich with nutrients, the scarab returns home. Face down, guided by the sun, it propels the tightly-packed dung backwards to a burrow lined with dusky spheres. Underground, it tunnels into the ball to deposit a precious egg. In time, the larva hatches and feeds, until it emerges, fully formed, and instinct drives it down the same dusty trail to repeat the cycle.
Like Egyptians entrusting sacred mummies to tombs for the journey to the next life, a scarab burying its treasure marks the dawn of new life. Zoologist Sacred Scarab captures the mystique of Kyphi incense, a blend of blue lotus, raisins, plums, olibanum, myrrh, and juniper. Once bound with wine and burned in ancient rituals, today this divine scent guides your spirit on a path to discovery and rebirth.

Very Complex and Interesting Scent
I don't think I've ever smelled anything quite like this! I get a lot of aldehydes and they stick around for a long time, but they're not sharp at all and don't bother me the way they often do. The blue lotus strengthens with wear, and the plum/raisins/wine lend it a touch of sweetness, though I wouldn't say they are prominent. Completely unique and worth smelling!
