AMBER Slowly shifting from initial notes of spice and greenery to layers of wood and balmy ambergris beneath, Amber was created to reflect and affect your mood as the day progresses. Makers Note: “We wanted to create a scent that was full of energy in the morning (strong, lively citrus notes at the top), calmer by lunchtime, and mellow in the evening (woody and dry tobacco notes at the base). An o…

Amber’s dynamic burst of grassiness and greenery matches the energy of morning, subtly maturing into rich spice as the day continues. Closing notes of warm, earthy wood and balmy ambergris bring a more subdued, reflective tone to the fragrance as evening draws in. Made with paraffin wax.

ATLAS Inspired by the scents and scenery of Morocco’s Atlas Mountains, this fragrance is built around the aroma of pipe tobacco.

Made with paraffin wax.

Helios, inspired by the golden light that filters through the canopy, is an earthy scent with woody undertones and high notes of citrus and bergamot. It was inspired by lazy afternoons in Tuscany; leisurely strolls through sun-baked orange groves, far-reaching views of meandering forests, and vistas punctuated by the terracotta roofs of distant farmhouses. We wanted Helios to embody the serenity a…

SAMPHIRE A pinch of spicy juniper berries, citrus oil and an intoxicating trio of lavender, rosemary and basil, join verbena to layer over white amber and oak moss to culminate in a fragrance that evokes the fresh coastal air. Makers Note: “The idea for our Samphire scent came after a lazy Sunday lunch in Hammersmith rather than a swim off the Suffolk coast. Foregoing coffee for a fresh sprig of v…
