Jorum Studio - Monolith – Extrait de Parfum

Jorum Studio MONOLITH Extrait de Parfum

Eternity in a Single Breath

With MONOLITH, Ewan McCall, founder and creative force behind Jorum Studio, creates a fragrance that doesn’t narrate a story – it simply exists. This Extrait de Parfum, part of the Time Collection, is limited to only 180 bottles worldwide and carries the spirit of its predecessor, Psychoterratica III, the 2020 experimental creation that sold out in record time. In this reimagining, the uncompromising vision remains intact: an olfactory monolith, monumental, unmoving, beyond the fleeting nature of trends. MONOLITH is not made for everyone – it is an encounter you either seek or avoid, but can never forget.

Smoke, Resin and the Language of Silence

From the very first moment, a heavy, smoky peat note settles over your skin, as if you were standing in the cool shadows of an ancient stone temple. Deep oud, the dark oil drawn from the heart of agarwood, merges with the sharp, almost sooty cade oil and the balsamic warmth of labdanum to form a powerful, earthy foundation. Juniper and anise flash like fleeting sparks of spice, while black pepper and clary sage create a subtle undercurrent of movement. Resinous elemi opens the composition into a citrus-laced clarity, blending with sacred frankincense, the spicy brightness of cardamom, and the dark resin of myrrh to form a spiritual chord – an echo of rituals older than time itself.

A Foundation of Stone and Shadow

Beneath this imposing structure rests a base of mossy oakmoss and animalic castoreum – warm, earthy, and raw, as though life and mineral had fused into a single presence. MONOLITH follows no traditional pyramid; it remains close, dense, and unwavering, like a massive block holding its own secret. And within this steadfastness lies its power: it wears like an amulet whose meaning is yours alone to know. Ewan McCall proves with this creation his mastery of conceptual, artistic perfumery – a work that blurs boundaries and redefines the essence of fragrance art. MONOLITH is a luxurious niche perfume that does not seek approval, but rather stands as a declaration of intent. Wear it when you are ready to be drawn into the depths and to discover, in the dialogue between stillness and shadow, your own story.
