Vanilj
Maya Njie
Using the distinctly traditional Swedish combination of Vanilla and Cardamon, Vanilj becomes Nordic Cedar’s sweeter, more softly spoken sibling. The spicy, earthy aspect of Cardamom, Patchouli and Cedarwood is still present but now somewhat tamed towards a powdery gourmand by the added Vanilla note which gives the scent a slightly 'boozy' bourbon facet - delicious.
Key notes: Vanilla, Cardamom, Patchouli, Musk, Cedarwood, Amber
Specifications - 50 ml. Eau de Parfum.
Please note: perfumes are only shipped to the EU.
Vans x WTAPS
stormfashion.dk
After nearly a decade of collaborations between them, Vans and WTAPS come together again to unveil an eight-piece footwear capsule for Vault by Vans. The project takes inspiration in shape from iconic footwear silhouettes in rebuilding from the ground up the Vans Original Classics, using the same design specifications as their first size runs. To be released September 12th in limited quantities, the line promises to its audience an assortment of Original Classics that combine the design legacies of both brands. The collaboration roots itself in the philosophy of material-worth derived from Japanese craftsmen.
To begin, the first silhouette is a trio of OG Era LX. With a color-way heavily inspired by Japanese school uniform and the “uwabaki” concepts, this style simply replicates the four colors that denote a Japanese student’s grade level. Second to the table is the OG Sk8-Hi LX which combines a set of materials and tones that channel the vintage styling of the iconic Vans Caballero. Featuring embossed reptile nubuck and durable suede reinforcements, this material build can be seen once again on the OG Sk8-Hi LX in grey/black and all-black styles. The final silhouette is the OG Style 36 LX which was created with unity in mind. Taking one hue to all parts of the shoe, the OG Style 36 LX introduces black/black, navy/navy and burgundy/burgundy versions of itself in the Vault by Vans x WTAPS collection.
A new scent that feels like a perfume you once knew, then forgot, and have just stumbled upon in the back of a clearance shelf. Inspired by the scent of perfume ads in 90s fashion magazines, the scent of freshly dried hair after a shower, the scent of your childhood car’s air conditioning, and the metallic sparkle of a summer fountain—woven with mystery, nostalgia—Classique Perdu invites you to rediscover a fragrance that feels both familiar and forgotten, an iconic scent lost and found again.
Top notes: lavandin, tomato leaf, a permanent marker accord and blackcurrant berries symtrap.
Heart notes: clary sage, iris and solar rose.
Base: styrax resin, sandalwood, evernyl notes and a suede accord.
Specifications - Eau De Toilette 30ml. Made in France.
Velo
stormfashion.dk
Cycling is zeitgeist. With rising fuel prices and mounting ecological awareness, bicycle sales are significantly up. Activity became activism and then lifestyle. Moving on two wheels is now a movement. Velo is a striking visual journey into the multifaceted world of cycling and the diverse tribes that inhabit it. These range from hardcore 2-wheel globetrotters, downtown messengers on fixed-gear bikes without brakes, laid back pedallers on old-fashioned Dutch bicycles, fashionable cyclists on vintage racing bikes, and dedicated fans of high-tech racing machines and e-bikes. The book also gives insider views into the production halls of renowned Italian and French brands as well as the workshops of a new generation of passionate frame builders in the US. Velo presents the design and visual aesthetic of today’s cycling culture. The book features examples of T-shirts, caps, bags, flyers, and special equipment such as the spoke cards that bike messengers use in their alleycat races. It also explores the impact the cycling movement is making on contemporary art. In addition, Velo documents the relevance of bicycles in both rural and urban areas. It introduces innovative urban planning concepts such as the new bike lanes that are currently emerging in Manhattan and Copenhagen. Velo is the fast lane into a topic that is both entertaining and socially relevant. The book is geared toward anyone who has a professional interest in or personal passion for the world of cycling.
Velvet Haze BYREDO
stormfashion.dk
The Velvet Haze is that daze state that carries us to artificial paradises, that ardent moment where eternity seems finally regained. The opulence of the scent embarks us in a psychedelic whirlpool reminiscent of the hypnotic beauty of a bonfire. Along this exhilarating path, the sweetness of coconut water soon gives way to the feverisk power of patchouli leaves. The air is dry and the atmosphere lazy. An experience of all senses that the velvety cacao and the wild musk enrich with their earthy envelope.

The perfume features notes of ambrette, coconut water and patchouli leaves to name a few.

Video Geza Schoen
stormfashion.dk
"The world of perfume and the small pool of talented perfumers who work within the industry is a fascinating realm to explore. Whilst most of us are familiar with the iconic fragrance bottles and their accompanying campaigns, less is known about the perfumer, or the 'nose' behind them. These individuals are specialists, effectively artists who are highly trained in the concepts of fragrance aesthetics and capable of conveying abstract concepts and moods with delicate fragrance compositions. Geza Schoen is a leading independent nose, and the man behind one of the world's most standout fragrances, Escentric Molecules. Having previously resided in London, New York and Paris, German-born Schoen now lives and works from his home in Berlin, on the top floor of a 1960s apartment block in Kreuzberg. The apartment includes a small laboratory, which contains the all-important tools of his trade: raw materials, a scale and mixing accruements. He has recently realised that a fun way of crossing his modernist apartment, from laboratory to desk, is using a skateboard." anothermag.com
