Introducing: Hallowed Halls - A Shiz University Alumnus

Introducing: Hallowed Halls - A Shiz University Alumnus

At Haus Urban, we love to explore the magic hidden in the everyday places of Oz, and with Hallowed Halls, we’re taking you to one of the most iconic, yet understated, settings of Wicked—Shiz University. This fragrance from our Verdigris: Inspired by the Witches of Wicked collection celebrates the place where Elphaba and Galinda’s journeys truly began, a place filled with history, power, and the pursuit of knowledge.

Shiz University may not always take center stage, but its halls are filled with the legacy of witches, scholars, and magical moments. Hallowed Halls captures that depth, drawing you into a world where the scent of ancient books, magic, and tradition lingers in the air.

Top Notes: Clove, Bergamot

The fragrance opens with rich clove and refreshing bergamot, immediately grounding you in a world of knowledge and history. The clove brings a spicy warmth, evoking the scent of old, timeworn pages, while the bergamot adds a crisp, citrusy brightness, like a breath of fresh air in a vast, storied library.

As HB explains:

“Dear Old Shiz is the unsung character in Wicked. So much unfolds in these halls, where the witches’ true stories begin. I wanted Hallowed Halls to capture that history, legacy, and thirst for knowledge.”

Heart Notes: Rose, Lavender, Labdanum

As the scent deepens, the heart notes of rose, lavender, and labdanum bloom. The rose adds a soft, floral elegance, while the lavender lends a calming, meditative touch, bringing a sense of quiet reflection. The labdanum adds a resinous warmth, embodying the magic and mystery that fills the hallowed halls of Shiz University. It’s a scent that whispers of secrets kept and wisdom gained.

Base Notes: Bound Book Leather, Tobacco Leaves, Amber

The base of Hallowed Halls is where the scent’s true soul reveals itself. Bound book leather, tobacco leaves, and amber create a rich, grounding foundation. The leather smells like well-worn, ancient volumes, while the tobacco leaves bring an earthy, smoky depth. Amber adds a touch of warmth, like the soft glow of a candle in a library at dusk.

HB reflects on the creation of this scent:

"I was inspired by what I imagined the Grimmerie—the most powerful spellbook—would smell like. Leather-bound books and the lingering scent of magical hands became the starting point."

A Fragrance for the Scholars and Seekers

Hallowed Halls is a scent for those who seek knowledge, depth, and mystery. It invites you to step into a world where magic is real, history is alive, and every corner holds a new discovery. It’s a fragrance that lingers, much like the stories born within the walls of Shiz University.

This limited-edition scent is part of our Verdigris collection, and like the secrets of Shiz, it won’t last forever. Don’t miss your chance to bring the magic of Hallowed Halls into your world.
