Currently at tel•e•gram:PaquitaA scent for winter nights. Nardo, a Spanish tuberose common on Las Ramblas, lends a smoky voluptuousness, and Mariposa, a flower native to Cuba, adds a lush green character. Clove and Cedarwood give spice, comfort. A warm heat under the collar of a thick coat.Basil MuguetA subtle and ambiguous floral. Pretty Lily-of-the-Valley is complicated by crisp Basil, softened by Rose, Champaca, and Tonka Bean. Not the flower itself, but rather a dusty etching of it. Rose SoapAn unusual variation on the loveliest of flowers. Ambrette Seed and Creosote give a powdery, airy feel. Frankincense, Jasmine, and Oak Moss create an incredibly rich dry-down. Begins clean and shy, and slowly envelops, darkening all the way.

Paquita
A scent for winter nights. Nardo, a Spanish tuberose common on Las Ramblas, lends a smoky voluptuousness, and Mariposa, a flower native to Cuba, adds a lush green character. Clove and Cedarwood give spice, comfort. A warm heat under the collar of a thick coat.

Basil Muguet
A subtle and ambiguous floral. Pretty Lily-of-the-Valley is complicated by crisp Basil, softened by Rose, Champaca, and Tonka Bean. Not the flower itself, but rather a dusty etching of it. 

Rose Soap
An unusual variation on the loveliest of flowers. Ambrette Seed and Creosote give a powdery, airy feel. Frankincense, Jasmine, and Oak Moss create an incredibly rich dry-down. Begins clean and shy, and slowly envelops, darkening all the way.
