KANHAKOTAMA | Mighty Naga forces stir and sway, Throughout celestial realms, they hold sway. Dark stars and waning moon obey, Vanquished by their power and display. Black-scaled Naga leads the troops, Scales shimmering with a beauty that regroups. Gathering Naga armies with intent,
Towards the heavenly realms, they’re hell-bent.

KANHAKOTAMA | “Kanhakotama” is one of the four primary Thai naga families, characterized by blackish scales resembling obsidian. It is believed to originate from secretions of gods, although some are born from eggs. Generally, their bodies are robust and imposing, possessing greater power than other naga families. They are rarely encountered and reside in the deepest layer of the river. Most commonly, they serve as warriors safeguarding their land and as guardians of treasures. Nagas within the Kanhakotama family are scarce, but those who diligently cultivate virtues can
ascend to higher ranks, becoming ruling noble nagas, such as the eminent King Damsanesiri Chantranakharach, the renowned Thai naga warrior king.

The inspiration for this fragrance embodies the awe-inspiring presence of the black-scaled naga warriors amidst the backdrop of a dusty, war-torn battlefield. To encapsulate the essence of the formidable black-scaled naga warriors, we have employed real Ebony Wood, which we burned and used to create an accord, evoking the essence of darkness akin to the shadowy armor
laden with dust. The fragrance is then elevated with the inclusion of Black Pepper, Cumin, and Piper Betle, infusing the scent with the ambiance of dust and heat on the battlefield. Leather notes further enhance the warrior persona before being harmoniously connected with Vanilla and other woody notes, elevating and amplifying the essence of the core fragrance.
