The Scent

Edgy, yet welcoming, this scent captures the sensory contradictions of midtown Manhattan on a wet fall day. Petrichor, minerality and bright bergamot elicit New York City’s damp concrete and sharp skyline facades of granite and steel, while hyacinth, musk, and cedar provide a counteracting softness and warmth reminiscent of freshly prepared bouquets at the neighborhood bodega.

The Notes

  • Top:  Bergamot, Fig Tree Leaves, Berry, Lemon 
  • Middle:  Hyacinth, Jasmine, Tulip, Minerals Accord 
  • Base:  Cedarwood, Sandalwood, Musk, Petrichor Accord

The Memory

“My first visceral impression of New York City came stepping out of a subway station somewhere in midtown Manhattan one wet fall morning. I was mesmerized by the metallic colors and endless layers of granite, glass, and metal facades on the countless structures towering over me. Yet the sharp minerality in the air, enhanced by the wet concrete below my feet, was contrasted with a sense of warmth, almost certainly from the sight and smell of freshly cut flowers at the nearby bodega. That’s New York for you — a city of contradictions.”

Buying Handmade

For small-scale, home decor artisans, their brands are their livelihoods and it reflects in the care that they take to hone their craft and produce something of real value. When given a choice between something that has been churned out by a machine in a factory and something that was beautifully crafted in someone’s garage, more consumers are opting for the latter. Every choice we make with regards to how we exercise our buying power, makes a difference.

Detoxify Your Life

The link between physical, mental and emotional wellbeing is becoming clearer. With the move to cleaner living and mindfulness, we’ve seen a pivot towards a detox movement that affects all categories of life. Detoxing takes many forms from eating healthier, and meditating, to uncluttering your space and choosing house decor items that stimulate good moods.
