With Angels and Archangels: Kerosene's New Woody Scent
Kerosene's latest release, With Angels and Archangels, is a woody oriental fragrance for both men and women, launched in 2026. Created by perfumer John Pegg, it offers a deep, smoky, and ethereal experience.
The fragrance features charcoal, incense, rose, cedar, sandalwood, and musk. It's a composition that balances darkness with light, much like its angelic title suggests.
With Angels and Archangels opens with a burst of charcoal and incense, giving it a smoky and almost ritualistic aura. The rose then emerges, adding a soft floral touch that smooths the edge, while cedar and sandalwood create a warm, creamy base with musk.
The accords are rich: amber, woody, smoky, rose, balsamic, warm spicy, powdery, and floral. This complexity allows the fragrance to evolve beautifully on the skin, shifting from a dry, smoky start to a softer, powdery finish.
Though the official note pyramid isn't detailed, the listed ingredients suggest a well-crafted composition. Aficionados of bold and unusual scents will find this intriguing, especially for cold weather or evening wear.
With an average rating of 3.91 out of 5 from 66 votes, it's a fragrance that polarizes, but those who love it truly adore. Kerosene is known for its quality and artistic approach, and this one is no exception.
The performance is solid, with good longevity and a moderate projection. It's not a scent for the faint of heart; it demands attention, but rewards the wearer with a unique olfactory journey.
This fragrance is for those who appreciate smoky, woody, and complex scents with a touch of floral sweetness. It's unisex, appealing to men and women who want a bold, distinctive fragrance for the colder months or special occasions.
With Angels and Archangels is a compelling addition to Kerosene's lineup. John Pegg has masterfully balanced the dark charcoal with the delicate rose, resulting in a fragrance that is both intense and refined. If you're looking for something original and deep, this is worth exploring.

Share what you noticed: opening, drydown, sillage and the moments when it works for you.
It has a very good opening; it can give off Encre Noir vibes mixed with a smoky Rose 31 by Le Labo, and the incense doesn’t feel that intense. It has that citrusy, incense-like character similar to Reliqvia by Filippo. This lasts for the first hour or two, and the rest of the time it’s a skin scent. It would have been great with more projection and more smoke/incense. But even so, he/she loves it.
