CATOBLEPAS Parfum 50ml

VOLUME. V - AETHIOPIA

A confusing array of notes, intentionally so, a cacophony references that’s better left uninterpreted.

In ancient accounts from Aethiopia, the catoblepas is described as a heavy‑headed beast that can only face the ground. Classical writers claimed its gaze, or in some versions its breath, could kill, and that it fed on poisonous plants. Often likened to a buffalo or boar‑like creature, it is depicted as slow and sullen, with bloodshot eyes and a mane that falls across its face. Its danger lies not in pursuit but in the fatal meeting of its eyes.
