The fragrance pays homage to Madchester: a cultural and musical movement that defined an entire era.
Fragrance notes include Juniper, Thyme and Cedarwood.
“Post-industrial Manchester in the ‘80s: crumbling warehouses and railway arches –and an urge for
experimentation. Suddenly, everything came together: the beats, the dance, the substances. The very hub around which everything revolved was, arguably, Factory Records and extended into their groundbreaking club – The Haçienda. The legendary record label merged talent from the realms of music, art and films to create one of the most significant, and last, youth movements of the 20th century.”

The scent La Habana is based on a sailor’s reminiscence of Cuba before the revolution. The scent shines a light on the island’s golden musical era between the 1930s and 1950s.
The scent is aromatic, smokey and alluring.
“Known as a playground for the mafia and wealthy elite, Havana in the mid 1900s hosted many vibrant music venues like the Tropicana or the members’ guild Buena Vista Social Club. The rhythmic pulsations of Habanera, Latin Jazz and Salsa that were heard everywhere coupled with the dazzling showgirls, added to the tropical island’s allure. After the revolution in 1959 many establishments closed down and with that an era of Havana ended. The scent La Habana is inspired by my uncle who was a sailor, his narratives of Cuba.”

The 19-69 fragrance Higher Peace is inspired by the Santa Monica Canyon and the documentary Tripping with Ken Kesey.
The scent is hempy, bladed and Play-Doh-y.
“The scent Higher Peace is influenced by the Merry Pranksters and the retired schoolbus Furthur, which enlightened America during the 60s. It’s about never stop learning. Letting your guard down, trying to understand each other and, with that, traveling through unknown waters. It is also a statement of peace, inspired by the values of bagism, a term created by Lennon and Ono in 1969. The intent of bagism is avoiding prejudice and stereotyping by not judging others on the basis on skin color, gender, sexuality, age or other.”
Top notes: Davana, Bergamot, Cardamon

“Subtle and modern scent completed by a combination of hinoki, yuzu, nutmeg and frankincense.”
Fragrant steam rises from forest-enveloped hot spring. A cooling breeze strokes the hair and moist-covered rocks are coiled with moss. As the breathing deepens, fragments of memory continue to sink and float. Based on the subtle sensitivity of woody musk, FOR REST captures an imagery of silent respite in the middle of the woods, blended with a refreshing and mystic air. A sip of fresh yuzu tea sliding through well blended woody accord with mineral, hinoki and incense completes its' modern mood with slight spicy touch of nutmeg and black pepper.

"A fresh interpretation of woody fragrance enhanced with Campari accord."
A dense forest drenched in a shower of rain. Scents of rain-soaked soil and smoked leaves are reminiscent of brisk wind. In the Shower is a new interpretation of the paradoxical combination of dark forest and airy Campari accord. Rain pours down, filling the air with crushed citrus and mingling with scent of drenched soil. Smoky aftertaste lingers around where fallen leaves were collected and burned. Rustiness of patchouli and mystic Guaiac slowly permeate the air and disperse to reveal the sensual silhouette of the forest in the change of season.
