Leather + Pine: Inspired by that unique experience and our own trips to the Minnesota North Woods, Leather + Pine is a coniferous fragrance designed to make you and your admirers feel closer to the forest line, no matter how far you stray from it. With base notes of inky leather oil and aromatic frasier fir, layered with cedarwood and saddle soap, the resulting scent is warm and clean, with a touch of tree-sap sweetness.

Santalum: Known to regularly charm passerby's with its captivating musk, Santalum is our carefully mastered take on a sandalwood-centric scent. Starting with a woodsy base of Australian Sandalwood, we layer on leather and ambrox to establish a uniquely rich and spicy depth. We then weave in subtle notes of cardamom and palo santo for an underlying herbal complexity. The result is a warm and vibrant fragrance rumored to be addictive to its users and admirers alike.

Oakmoss: We created Oakmoss to be reminiscent of the moment after a storm clears, when the sun shines through to unleash a palpably fresh, warm, and earthy scent from the forest floor. Seeing as Oakmoss is one of the most used raw materials in perfumery, we wanted to strip it down to its purest form to reveal how it might be experienced in its natural habitat. We did this by laying a base of warm woods, sandalwood and cedarwood, as well as adding a touch of lavender to accentuate Oakmoss’s brighter, botanical qualities.

Tobacco + Musk: Tobacco, spice, and everything nice. This indulgent fragrance spotlights the earthy sweetness of freshly-picked tobacco leaves, seasoned nicely with spicy notes of amber and pepper. Wrapped up in a warm base of teakwood and sandalwood and brightened by a touch of grassy vetiver, wearing this scent is to emit a sophisticated concerto of soil-grown splendor.

Hand-woven with natural sisal fibers, these beautiful coasters are a great addition to your home decor.
