THE LANGUAGE OF FLOWERS II: Strange Flowers | Limited Edition Perfume Set

𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓛𝓪𝓷𝓰𝓾𝓪𝓰𝓮 𝓸𝓯 𝓕𝓵𝓸𝔀𝓮𝓻𝓼: 𝒮𝓉𝓇𝒶𝓃𝑔𝑒 𝐹𝓁𝑜𝓌𝑒𝓇𝓈 Are you familiar with the secret Language of Flowers? Also known as floriography, this fantastical pastime was popularized during the Victorian age as a means to covertly express unspoken desires through the use of colourful stems and arrangements. Six strange fantasy florals—Black Bat Flower, Corpse Flower, Ghost Pipe, Skeleton Flower, Spider Lily, and Venus Flytrap—have been interpreted into individual perfumes meant to be mixed and matched to convey your unique intentions. Within their bold, unusual characters lies their strength; what makes them so unique, so valuable, so raw. This set contains 6 x 4 ml Eau de Parfum, including; • BLACK BAT FLOWER: Fury • Instinct • Advocacy “Don't look away.” Darkness has fallen and disoriented many, but your instincts guide you: you know what's right. With eyes that see truth through the mire, the quiet rage rising from within is informing you that it's time to act. To appear fierce and frightening. To reclaim that righteous anger, and channel it into defending yourself—and others—from the monsters in the night. Notes: bloodstains from dark berries and plum wine. Forbidden tuberose, clove incense, and a dark cavern floor accord composed of patchouli and mushrooms, strewn with gnarled roots and heavy drapes of hanging moss. Featured ingredienys—or, how the magic happens: patchouli absolute. oakmoss absolute, labdanum absolute, myrrh, cepes, tuberose absolute, ylang ylang, rose, clove absolute, black currant berry, pink grapefruit, bergamot • CORPSE FLOWER: Distinction • Repute • Rebellion “I will not bend.” Your reputation precedes you, inspiring tall tales and probing stares from passers-by, awestruck by your form. Rather than hide, you rise tall; you remain unapologetic, a tower of monstrous beauty and unmovable will. Let the world watch; they will marvel as you bloom. Notes: a loathsome bouquet of pungent animalia, softened by the scent of sifted soil from an lush and earthy greenhouse accord. Damp, dirty, and warm, defying convention with an overdose of musk, sweet resins, and sweat. Featured Ingredients—or, how the magic happens: patchouli absolute, hyraceum tincture* made in-house, cistus labdanum, wool absolute*, costus root, cumin, cypriol, vetiver, atlas cedarwood, cepes, opoponax. *extracts derived from animal products • GHOST PIPE: Reciprocity • Transmutation • Repair “Rest your weary head.” Rainwater staccatoes across the forest floor, bouncing playfully from waxen leaf to wet pools of soil below. The treeline sombers, hues of iris blue and periwinkle ushered across the clouded sky. Small spectral forms emerge from the ground, their frill-capped heads bowed as though solemn, sympathetic, or thankful. There’s a lush, vegetal cradle for you to rest, while the Pipes watch over and the earth transmutes your sorrow into blooms. Notes: a soft spray of mushroom spores, orris root, and sweet violets rising like a mist from the wet forest floor. A deeply-rooted, damp and vegetal floral scent. Featured ingredients—or, how the magic happens: patchouli absolute, white mushroom extract, orris butter, carrot absolute, blood cedarwood, alpha ionone • SKELETON FLOWER: Clarity • Transparency • Vulnerability “I am clear in my intentions.” The sankayō (サンカヨ, lit. lotus of mountain), or skeleton flower, is native to the mountainous regions of Japan and the Russian Far East. Ethereal in appearance, its solid white petals turn ice-clear in the rain and morning dew, revealing a delicate vein-like structure underneath. Notes: a sentimental bouquet of powdered flowers, dusted in the heavy pollen of comfort. A medley of white florals, orris butter, watery lotus and petrichor laid atop a delicate bone accord. Featured ingredients—or how the magic happens: styrax tonkinese (benzoin Siam), orris butter, majmua attar, coumarin, amyris, pink lotus absolute, bergamot • SPIDER LILY: Attunement • Wonder • Beatitude “I am attuned to divine frequencies..” The Beach Spider Lily is a marvel of the shoreline; sea salt-sprayed tangles of dancing strands, bodies tipped like saucers filled on moonlight. Its peculiar appearance–parts star, satellite dish, and spectral spider–might compel us to turn our ear skyward and stretch our senses like tentacles, feeling for the sea. Notes: lunar floralcy emerging during a tropical sunset. A sentimental bouquet of powdered flowers, dusted in the heavy pollen of comfort. A medley of white florals, orris butter, watery lotus and petrichor laid atop a delicate bone accord.

It secretes a nectar to lure and capture prey, turning hunter into hunted through sweet temptation. Notes: sweet secretions with a sharp green bite. Bitter green freshness, the sting of barbed leaves, and brilliant, hot flashes of fuchsia. An indolic white floral heart and the warm, wet inside of a pleading mouth. A push and pull between tropical fruit dewiness and grassy wetland undertones. The sheen of nervous sweat. A love that consumes.
