Be Still — a fragrance for a state of silence
Be Still is an eau de parfum by Wicked Good, created for those who appreciate unusual and expressive compositions.
This unisex fragrance combines an aromatic and woody character with a rich balsamic atmosphere, so it is perceived not as a light everyday accent but as a complete olfactory statement.
Wicked Good comes from the United States and consistently develops the idea of American boldness, curiosity, and a love of unconventional combinations.
The brand knows how to turn familiar motifs from nature, cuisine, and pop culture into fragrance narratives, while Be Still reveals its more contemplative side: it does not strive to please everyone, but it does have character and a distinctive individuality.
How the composition unfolds
The top notes of Be Still establish a resinous, smoky opening: copaiba balsam sounds soft, dense, and slightly astringent, while frankincense adds cool minerality and a sense of air in a quiet temple-like space.
Gradually, the composition becomes deeper: elemi brings a transparent resinous freshness, while myrrh intensifies its dark, meditative, and slightly vintage facet.
In the base, the fragrance takes on a warm woody-musky character.
Hay softens the resins with a dry, herbaceous nuance, noble woods create a substantial framework, and musk makes the trail more cohesive and rounded.
The development is smooth, without abrupt transitions, leaving behind a dense, recognizable cloud.
Character and wearability
In mood, Be Still is a serious, calm, and slightly mysterious fragrance.
Its balsamic, sweet, musky, and woody accents are especially expressive in cool weather, in the evening, and in situations where you want to emphasize your personal style.
This is a fragrance to get to know thoughtfully: it unfolds gradually on the skin, allowing you to discern the changing resinous, dry, and warm nuances.
The trail is described as very strong, so Be Still should be applied with caution, taking the surrounding space into account.
No specific recommendations for the number of sprays on skin or clothing have been provided for this release, but the composition's intense character suggests a moderate dosage, especially indoors.
On fabric, the fragrance may last longer than on skin, so it is best to start with the smallest amount.
The perfumer and the style of the release
The composition was created by Cheri Tracy.
Her work is built around an expressive combination of resins, wood, dry herbaceous notes, and musk, which gives Be Still a cohesive, three-dimensional character rather than reducing it to a single simple note.
The fragrance retains its unisex positioning and can feel equally natural on women's and men's skin, changing according to body temperature and individual skin chemistry.
Who will enjoy Be Still
The fragrance will appeal to fans of rich woody-balsamic compositions, frankincense, myrrh, and a long-lasting trail.
It may interest those looking not for an obvious sweet perfume, but for a more complex, dry, and atmospheric scent with the feeling of aged wood and warm resins.
As a direction for further exploration, consider Amouage Epic Man, which will also appeal to lovers of expressive woody-spicy depth.
Other options with a similar mood include Sultan Pasha Attars Cheval d'Arabie and Maison Gabriella Chieffo Taersia, especially if you are interested in dense, resinous, and distinctive fragrances.
Be Still is not connected with the collection listed in the database, and information about the year of release and other concentrations of this fragrance is unavailable.
Nevertheless, its recognizable note pyramid, very strong trail, and unusual use of resins make this release a notable example of Wicked Good's approach to perfumery.
