The Lover of Funerie: A Portrait of the Mystic

The Archetype: The Mystic

The one who wears Funerie by Pineward Perfumes is not merely drawn to fragrance—they are called by it. This scent, with its dark resins, damp earth, and whispers of decay, is not for those who seek comfort in the familiar. It is for the seeker, the one who walks the liminal spaces between life and death, beauty and ruin. Their archetype is the Mystic, the individual who perceives the sacred in the profane and the eternal in the ephemeral.

The Mystic does not merely observe the world; they commune with it. They are attuned to the unseen, the forgotten, the overlooked. Funerie is their sigil—an olfactory invocation of the sublime melancholy that lingers in abandoned chapels, overgrown graveyards, and the quiet moments before dawn.

Life and Aesthetic: A Pilgrimage Through Shadows

Their life is a carefully curated pilgrimage through the margins of beauty. They are drawn to the gothic, the baroque, the Romantic—not as mere aesthetics, but as languages of the soul. Their home is filled with relics: dried flowers, antique books, candle wax hardened into strange sculptures. They wear clothing that suggests another era, not out of nostalgia, but because they understand fabric as a second skin, a way to embody the past without being bound by it.

They read poetry, but not the kind that soothes. They prefer verses that cut, that unsettle, that force the reader to confront the abyss. Rilke, Baudelaire, Dickinson—these are their companions. Music, too, is a ritual: neoclassical compositions, dark folk ballads, the slow drone of a cello. They do not seek entertainment; they seek communion.

Philosophy and Values: The Sacredness of Decay

To them, decay is not an end but a transformation. They see beauty in the wilted rose, the cracked fresco, the rusted gate. Their philosophy is one of sacred impermanence—they do not fear death because they have made a study of it. They understand that all things must pass, and in that passing, there is a kind of grace.

They value depth over surface, silence over noise, solitude over crowds. Their relationships are few but intense, built on shared understanding rather than convenience. They do not suffer small talk gladly; they crave conversations that spiral into the metaphysical, the existential.

Yet, they are not morbid. Their fascination with the macabre is not a rejection of life but a deeper embrace of it. They know that to love something fully, one must also love its end.

The Shadow: The Risk of Isolation

The Mystic’s strength is also their flaw. Their devotion to the unseen can become a retreat from the tangible world. They may grow so enamored with symbolism that they forget to live. Their introspection can harden into solipsism, their appreciation of melancholy into a kind of self-indulgence.

Relationships may suffer because few can follow them into the depths they frequent. They risk becoming spectral—present but untouchable, admired but not understood. Their love of decay can, at times, bleed into a disdain for vitality, for the messy, exuberant chaos of ordinary life.

The Balance: Between the Tomb and the Garden

The true challenge for the wearer of Funerie is to remain rooted in both worlds—to honor the shadows without forsaking the light. When they succeed, they become guides, showing others how to find meaning in transience. When they fail, they become ghosts, haunting their own lives.

They are not for everyone. But for those who recognize them, they are a rare kind of mirror—one that reflects not just the face, but the soul behind it.
