DARK BOUQUET

Earth and citrus!

Notes: Orange flower, cypress, jasmine, vetiver

The undergrowth of a citrus orchard is earthy, sharp and sweet!

TOBACCO NIGHT

 A lingering after scent from a smocked tobacco pipe.

notes: sage, coriander, dried tobacco leaves, elemi, amber, musk

Inspired by the sweet musky after scent from a smoked tobacco pipe lingering one thick summer night, conjuring memories of leather-bound books and an innocent time one loved.

PABLO

Intense gaze, smoke, and paint.

notes: lemon, frankincense, freesia, mimosa, Cuban tobacco leaves, coriander, vanilla absolute, tonka beans

Pablo, not Picasso.

This is burnt bougainvillea on a heavy humid evening.

This is the sun, in its setting,

turning everything to blood

this is for Paulo,

(not Claude, not Maya, or Paloma.)

This is for the hushed quiet,

the forbidden,

the forgotten.

ORPHEUS INCARNATE

 

Lured by the call of Orpheus.

notes: carnation, fig, blond tobacco, pimento leaves, tonka bean absolute, heliotrope, licorice, musk, oris.

A modern myth translating one's inner desire to transform and reconnect with nature. Lured by the beckoning call, Orpheus incarnate.

IRTIU NEFERTITI

The beauty has arrived.

Notes of blue lotus, fig wood, osmanthus flowers, passionflower, guaiac wood, sandalwood, musk

The sacred, primordial, and fragrant nymphaea caerulea, or blue lotus, was applied to the body of Egyptian queen Nefertiti. Still one of the most important artifacts that remain from the ancient Egyptian civilization, nymphaea caerulea was believed to gift euphoria and lift consciousness to the higher realms.

OPIA

 

Pupils black, glittering, bottomless…

Notes: rhubarb, oud wood absolute, Virginian cedarwood, Australian sandalwood, labdanum absolute.

Looking into someone's eyes is warming, vulnerable and invasive all at once, pupils glittering and opaque. Our interpretation of this feeling is opia, a fruity, woody unisex parfum.

PUROTU ROSE

 

The handsome rose.

Notes: rose otto, bitter orange, cumin, rose de mai, pink pepper, teak wood, Haiti, and java vetiver.

Three distinct scents filled the air at ngatihaua witehira, tiffany’s great grandfather’s, tangi (funeral). The celebration of life with hot soil, the smell of smoke from the hangi (a traditional Maori meal cooked in the ground), and roses adorned the tables in the food hall.

Curionoir make extrait de parfum and create fragrances that evoke the tangible in a work of sensory intangibles. Extrait de perfume is rich, dense, and long-lasting on the skin and our chosen language in which to gift the sense of smell. All of our fragrances are applied directly to the skin bringing an experience back to an age we have forgotten.

DIAPHANOUSE

 

Bewildering clarity

Notes: mandarin, sambac jasmine, saffron, narcissus absolute, cayenne pepper, amber

Inspired by the bewildering moment of clarity. The clear freshness of mind with the grounding calm of wisdom.

CELLAR FEELS

 

Fruits and dust in the cellar

Apple, black tea leaves, orange, lavender super, nutmeg, grape leaves, Virginian cedarwood, tree moss, atlas cedarwood

Holding memory
cradling memory
making for memory
tenderness of another
capturing the ephemerality of a scent as a vessel to remember
to honor
singing expectations: hallelujah!
Blurred memory
a collection of memories
a story one to another

415 AD

 

Hypatia's surroundings.

notes of tomato leaves, rosemary, grapefruit, Iranian galbanum, Somalian olibanum, agarwood, myrrh, vetiver, siam benzoin.

Hypatia, the female philosopher, astronomer, and mathematician. All ingredients in this green and resinous fragrance were available on March 8th, 415ad, the day Hypatia met her death.
