Here are a few special gems from our perfume archives. Quantities are very limited (some have only 2-3 bottles available). Most of these have our newer labels with artwork. ALL are labeled either 5 ml amber bottles, rollerball, or 30 ml bottles.
Many of these perfumes have ingredients that are no longer available and can never be blended again.
- 1891: A delightful anachronism of French lavender buds, mandarin peel, lime leaves, bergamot, bay leaves, coriander, clove, nutmeg, ginger flower, pink pepper, elegant white carnations, heirloom tree rose, opium tar accord, and woody amber resin nestled in an embrace of precious oriental incense woods.
- Calaveras de Azucar: Hauntingly sweet sugar skulls nestled against a backdrop of sugared white ambers.
- Crimson Light: Kitan vegan musk passionately united with spikenard and a dark aged merlot red wine accord with subtle elements of tannic oak casks, graphite, black cherries, black currants, wild plums, violets, licorice, black pepper, and cedar.
- Crown of Success: For Success in all Endeavors - Aromatic Bay, Sweet Frankincense, & Piquant Spices. Might not be suitable for people with sensitive skin.
- Coup de Foudre: A sensual flirtation of sweet vanilla honey musk unfolding into a summer romance of a bouquet of neroli, tuberose, and star jasmine flowers. Succulent kisses from plums, green figs, and ripe berries illuminated by a distant flash of ozonic lightning and and light tropical rain.
- Deadwood: A ruggedly romantic blend of worn holster leather, deep black amber, pine tar honey, vetivert root, tonka, high desert sage blossom, cedar tips, and dark aged blackstap rum. Green Witch: Diviner's sage, lemon verbena, woodland orchid, winterhazel, oakmoss, aromatic woods.
- Ex Libris: Antique paper, old leather bindings, parchment, dust, and the faint scent of a wooden lecturn.
- In the Shade of Wisteria Blooms: Wisteria, Pakuchi, White celery, Kyuri, Hokkaido lavender, Pepperbush, Black Dragon pearl tea
- Persephone: A love spell of sexy ripe pomegranates and dark red merlot wine.
- Queen of Hearts: A pulchritude of brandied black cherries saucily enrobed in a dark decadence of praline tart.
- Rêverie Balnéaire: The remains of a driftwood bonfire, white sand, dried seaweed, a kiss of ocean waves, and sun warmed skin musk.
- Stag Moon: Staghorn fern; deerstongue leaves; rum infused maple, birch, and cedar woods; oak moss, autumn musk, clove buds, autumn leaves, deerhide leather, and smoke.
- Tuesday in Trieste: The essence of a lazy summer afternoon idling at a piazza cafè - a sparking cocktail of prosecco and elderflower wine, fresh apricots, green fig, citrus, mandarins, and effervescent summer musks.
- Wing of Bat: A surprisingly clean chypre of oakmoss, green patchouli, crushed ferns, grey amber, a faint trace of musk, and a hint of leather.
