Arcanum Experiments are perfuming experiments and happenstance musing from our workroom. While they didn't make the cut to our catalog (or we didn't have enough ingredients to make a larger batch), we wanted to give you an opportunity for some playful olfactory exploration. None of these formulas are written down, making each Experiment unique and unrepeatable.
2025 quantities for Arcanum Experiments are more limited than Experiments in previous years.
Available in amber 5 ml. and 1 oz. bottles. As we pre-bottle these in advance, samples are not available
- Experiment 1, aka Flower Power: A riotous cottage garden of twining honeysuckle, climbing roses, wisteria, dianthus, daisies, lilies, phlox, sweetpea, peonies, and iris.
- Experiment 2, aka Of Spice and Men: A masculine blend of spice, ginger root, leather, tonka, black amber, oakmoss, dry woods.
- Experiment 3, aka Pipe Dreams: A reverie of smouldering pipe tobacco, affogato al caffè, a splash of amaretto, and frankincense.
- Experiment 4, aka Tutti Frutti, Oh Beautti!: A fruity bombshell of berries, purple plums, fresh figs, lychees, ripe peaches, and muskmelon
- Experiment 5, aka Violetta Coquetta: Old fashioned Victorian violet pastille candies, sweet white musk, and vanilla bean
- Experiment 6, aka Seaside Ghost Town: Slightly creepy abandoned buildings on the shore of a bleak ocean - rusting metal, ocean salt, sandy dirt, sea coal, storm felled pine trees
- Experiment 7, aka Is the Cake a Lie?: A tempting array of inviting red velvet cake, luscious frosted vanilla angel cake, and aromatically beckoning caramel coffee cake
- Experiment 8, aka Not THAT Musk: Warmly inviting musks enhanced with the depth and woody complexity of Zanzibar cloves
- Experiment 9, aka Cherry Bombe: An explosion of all things cherry - black cherries, cherry pie, cherry cola, chocolate covered cherries, cherry nougat, and candy cherry balls.
- Experiment 10, aka Sense and Sensibili-Tea: A genteel ensemble of fresh green tea, bergamot, garden mint, hyacinths, green patchouli, and white sandalwood
- Experiment 11, aka Let’s Give’em Pumpkin to Talk About: Homemade pumpkin pie, candied apples, pear frangipani tart, and warm autumn spices
- Experiment 12, aka Grape Expectations: A childhood reminiscence of the effervescence of a freshly popped can of grape soda infused with blackberry musk

- Experiment 14, aka Everything Rhymes With Orange: A candystore treat bag of orange glitterati candy, bubblegum, conversation hearts, coconut taffy, lemon drops, and red licorice sticks.
- Experiment 15, aka Bad Decisions Make Good Stories: The scent of bad decisions and regrettable choices - skanky dive bars, illicit trysts in afterhours alleyways, and indolic floral perfume mixed with sweat.
- Experiment 16, aka Incandescent Vamp: Voluptuous rose, tuberose, opium, golden amber, and cashmere
