Kālarudra is the manifestation of Dewa Siwa (Tiwikarma) to resolve a catastrophe that is occuring on earth. In Bali the form of Kālarudra is potrayed as Barong Ket, a symbol of the good spirit of the forest, Banaspati Raja.
 
Banaspati Raja is known as the Spirit King of the Forest. Banaspati Raja manifests himself as Barong Ket to free the Balinese from his Shakti's curse who is manifesting herself as Dewi Durga with a form of Rangda. This story is symbolizing the victory of Dharma over Adharma (Tari Barong).
 
This scent Kālarudra is inspired by this mythology figure. The scent of sweet floraly Cempaka, mixed with woodsy Gaharu. The scent of mythical forest.
