SYNOPSIS: The women and men in these pages are lovers and brawlers, bullfighters and boxers, soft talkers and hard drinkers. They inhabit dusty Spanish villages and dank, dark brothels. At the heart of these unforgettable characters is a determined and undying passion that pushes them to make extraordinary decisions in the face of fear. Their fates are varied but the outcome is always the same, these are stories that grip you by the throat and don’t let go until you profess your devotion. Seductive and steadfast, this classic is not for the faint of heart but for the full of heart.

HOW IT WEARS
Bull’s Blood unsurprisingly opens strong and bold, like the flash of a matador’s red cape. Rich, velvety rose confronts earthy geranium and patchouli before backing down, causing the animalic black musk and sweet earthen tobacco to rear their heads. The dry down reveals the metallic bull’s blood, spilt on a bed of sandalwood and red roses. This powerhouse fragrance will last 6-8 hours on the skin, leaving a awe-inspiring trail in its wake.
LORE LOVES
This fragrance is certainly not for the faint of heart. Bull’s Blood is somehow simultaneously brutal and elegant, raw yet refined. It has a kind of old-world feel to it we can’t quite put our finger on, and that blood accord… wow. It’s thick, viscous, deep and earthy. There’s something so sensual and primal about Bull’s Blood, smelling it almost elicits an adrenaline rush. If blood smells this good, consider us vampires!
