Mandodari

Mandodari is a fascinating character in Hindu mythology, primarily known from the epic Ramayana. She is depicted as the wife of Ravana, the antagonist of the story, and is often portrayed as a beautiful and virtuous woman. However, her life is indeed filled with tragedy and complexities.

The concept of Mandodari’s layered stories you described, incorporating elements such as aphrodisiac narcotic flowers and resins, classic femme fatale black and white movie  elements, and a vintage chypre structure with natural Indian materials, sounds like a unique and evocative interpretation. By blending these elements, it seems you aim to capture the complexities and contrasts inherent in Mandodari’s character and her place in Hindu mythology.
