Description
Tact • Irresponsible Lustful Leading Gregarious
Intent on getting lost in heady afflictions. Richly rubbery, stubbornly unattainable, inviting to touch. Hot like a sun licked car bonnet yet smooth like the inside of an oyster shell. A familiar scene that’s hard to catch and harder to forget. Volatile of its own volition. Piquant, irreverent and sort of troubled.

The founders' inspiration
Dinner parties that creep into the early hours.
This scent encapsulates the founders’ most indulgent memories. Late night dinner parties that creep into the early hours. Decadent food, fabulous drinks, vinyls playing in the background. The glitz and glamour of getting dressed up and giving in to the night. Surrounded by friends, staying far too late. That feeling of a night that becomes a story worth retelling.

Questions
What does Guilty Story smell like?
Guilty Story is a woody amber parfum from Series One. The top note is neroli. The middle notes are saffron and cinnamon. The base notes are vanilla, musk, amber, Australian sandalwood, and cedarwood.
It smells richly rubbery and stubbornly unattainable. Hot like a sun licked car bonnet, smooth like the inside of an oyster shell. Saffron and amber warmed by vanilla and musk. Volatile of its own volition. Piquant, irreverent, sort of troubled. The scent of a night that becomes a story worth retelling.
How long does Guilty Story last on the skin?
Guilty Story lasts between 8 and 12 hours on skin, often longer. At 30% parfum concentration, the amber, sandalwood, and musk base is dense and tenacious, settling deeply into skin and clothing.
This is the most projecting scent in the Mihan Aromatics collection. A small amount carries a long way. Less is more.
Is Guilty Story unisex?
Yes. Guilty Story is genderless by design. The saffron, amber, and sandalwood read as warm and unbothered by category. It is worn by anyone who walks into a room intending to be remembered.
When should I wear Guilty Story?
Guilty Story is built for night. A date. An occasion. Any moment that needs to become a story.
It is too much for a quiet morning at the office. It is exactly right for the dinner that runs into the early hours, the vinyl on the turntable, the conversation that does not end.
Who does Guilty Story suit?
Guilty Story suits the one who starts the conversation that does not end. Who makes a room more interesting simply by entering it. Its Tact words are Irresponsible, Lustful, Leading, Gregarious.
It suits anyone unafraid to take up space.
What inspired Guilty Story?
Guilty Story was inspired by the founders' most indulgent memories of Melbourne nights. Late dinner parties that creep into the early hours. Decadent food, fabulous drinks, vinyls playing in the background. The glitz and glamour of getting dressed up and giving in to the night.
It belongs to Series One, the founders' Melbourne memories made liquid.
What does saffron smell like in Guilty Story?
Saffron is a warm, leathery, slightly metallic spice note with a hint of sweetness. In Guilty Story it sits at the heart of the composition alongside cinnamon, giving the scent its piquant, rubbery, almost troubled character.
Saffron is what makes Guilty Story feel volatile rather than simply warm. It is the note that lingers in the memory afterwards.
How does Guilty Story compare to the other Mihan Aromatics parfums?
Guilty Story is the most intense and most projecting scent in the Mihan Aromatics collection. Where Mikado Bark is restraint and Sienna Brume is ease, Guilty Story is heat.
Within the broader collection it sits closest in character to Sinful Rose, which is also a scent of intimacy and depth, though Sinful Rose is romantic and Guilty Story is gregarious. If you are choosing between them, Guilty Story is the dinner party and Sinful Rose is what happens after everyone leaves.
What sizes does Guilty Story come in?
Guilty Story is available in 2ml, 10ml, 30ml and 100ml parfum sizes. It is also available as a candle and air fragrance, allowing the scent to settle into a room as well as onto skin.
Can I try Guilty Story before buying a full bottle?
Yes. Guilty Story is included in our Discovery Set, which contains 2ml vials of all seven Mihan Aromatics parfums. Wear it across different occasions. A 20% discount code for any full size parfum is included with every Discovery Set.
