Resolution: Spend more time in nature

What is it about nature that is so calming yet so energizing? To us, a huge part of the pleasure is the mix of scents that convey a sense of safety and aliveness. The wet leaves against the cool rocks, the soft moss and the deeply rooted trees reaching far up into the fresh air. Bring out the desire for a walk in the woods with these enticing scent notes.

Resolution: Learn something creative

The start of a new year is the perfect time to sign up for a beginner class in a creative field. Challenge yourself by learning something new and find some new inspiration. Dancing, singing, ceramics, knitting or painting - maybe you’ll discover a hidden talent? Either way we can assure you you’ll have fun. Take that first small step out of your comfort zone and ignite the creative spark with the perfect scent.

Resolution: Meet new people

It can be challenging meeting new friends as an adult as there just aren’t as many natural occasions to bond with someone new. Adding someone to your group of friends can however be very rewarding and fun, and even lead to unexpected possibilities. So, how do you take that first step? There’s no better conversation-starter than an interesting perfume. You’ll be bonding in no time.

Cardamom, Ambroxan, Leather
Resolution: Treat yourself more often

The past two years have been incredibly challenging for many of us with periods of uncertainty and sadness. During life’s harder moments, it’s easy to put yourself aside to care for the needs of those around you instead. That’s why we want to give you a friendly reminder that it’s not selfish to treat yourself every now and then, no strings attached. Wear something extra comfortable, cancel your plans and deep-dive into pleasure with an exquisite scent.
