Released in 2011, Mississippi Medicine is a tale from the wild heart of ancient America. Inspired by the sacred death rituals of the proto-Mississippian tribes in 1200 AD, this bold scent revives forgotten forest ceremonies with modern grace. Made in the USA, by Brooklyn’s D.S. & Durga, it’s built for men who crave mystery, mood, and meaning.

Ever smelled ancient smoke in a cold pine forest? Or caught a whiff of ritual herbs at dusk?

This woody, smoky fragrance is crafted with deep intention. Expect sharp cedar and aldehydes in the opening, earthy birch tar and frankincense at the base, and an unusual heart of cypress root and cascarilla bark. It's dry, cool, and distant yet intimate. Sillage is moderate, but the scent clings for 6–8 hours, adjusting to skin like a well-worn jacket.

A niche fragrance for thinkers, loners, and lovers of stories. Best worn in fall and winter—when the chill sharpens your senses. Masculine. Unapologetic. A little weird, in the best way. Like walking through smoke-stained cabin ruins, or reading poetry in an abandoned chapel.

The vessel? Apothecary vibes. Minimal. Clear glass. Matte black cap. As if lifted from a forgotten medicine chest.

It’s for men who wear scent for themselves. For those who don’t follow crowds but walk alone through pine needles and cold air, chasing echoes. Hand-blended with top-tier resins, woods, and bark, Mississippi Medicine is all about craftsmanship. It speaks to quality, emotion, and old-world ritual, yet lives firmly in today’s world of bold niche perfumery.
