I'm so dazzled by this line of fragrances from local Madison perfumer Stephen - he's deeply considered every aspect of the product in a way that feels rare and invigorating. The scents are unusual, transporting, and super long-lasting thanks to their high concentration of scent (eau de parfums are the best!). And the packaging manages to be both luxurious - French glass, Horween leather from Chicago - and sustainable (the cushioning in the boxes is made from mushrooms!). 

These are a truly special gift for any gender - especially those people (partners...dads...) who are hard to shop for!

Choose from two travel-friendly styles: a 10ml travel spray, which comes in a hand-stitched Horween leather sleeve and will last about 100 sprays, or a 30ml bottle in mycelium (mushrooms!) compostable packaging.

Scent description:

After a standing espresso among the locals at a nearby café, a nice walk along the Arno leads you to the Uffizi Gallery. Upon entering, your gaze drifts not to the Renaissance masterpieces but to the ceilings and corners of the gallery, where an eclectic mix of gods, nymphs, satyrs, and fantastical creatures come alive. These figures, elongated and intertwined with ornamental designs, transport you to a dreamlike world of whimsy and wonder.

Grotesque by WESTLANDS captures this essence of otherworldly elegance and imaginative artistry. The fragrance opens with the fresh vibrancy of Petitgrain and a subtle spark of Black Pepper, evoking the interplay of light and shadow in the gallery's intricate designs. The heart unfolds with the luminous green floralcy of Lily of the Valley, symbolizing the delicate vines and arabesques that weave through the grotesques.

A grounding base of creamy Sandalwood and earthy Vetiver, infused with a soft but warm musk, anchors the composition. Together, they reflect the timeless beauty and depth of the grotesques—an elegant blend of the classical and the fantastical.

Grotesque is a fragrance that defies convention, much like its artistic namesake, inviting you to embrace the unexpected and revel in the imagination.
