Mesamerican Canyon Spirit
Now, as there in the distance the rocks push in front of the sun, black pepper spills out of the gorge into my tired face, as if fleeing from the heat, itself dry yet shimmering and fresh, it flows up the cliffs. Little mezcal cools my throat, warm earth and cold ash, a shining mountain stream, lemon peels shimmering in the smoke. This is a spiritual place.
Everything plants in pinyon pines, bathes in their balmy shadows, which they pour creeping into the canyons over Bursera bipinnata trees. Copal Canyon could you be called, after all, where your white resins flow, soft and woodsy and refreshing, mingling with the scent of the stone pines, I dream down into the valley. There the Palo Santo trees float in boats of rubber and sweet mint in the running tar of the little road, you can still smell them softly up here.

Barnaby Black's fragrances are 100% natural, thus tend to be moderate in their longevity and projection, and are subject to seasonal variations. "Our fragrances are not romantic notions of a time & place, they are the places we harvest them from." it says on the homepage.
"Mescalito" has stone pine at its center. Introduced by a cool, sharp freshness of black pepper and earthy, smoky, citrusy mezcal, soft, woodsy, refreshing copal resin (presumably white copal) soon mingles with the stone pine and complements its balsamic aroma exceptionally well. The rather cool-fresh birch tar carries the pepper-mezcal theme from the top notes into the base, and the sweetly rubbery notes of palo santo complement the pinyons and copal resin.
The spiritual place on the edge of the Mesoamerican canyon opens up for a good five to seven hours, the wind blowing increasingly quietly there.
