AMPHORA PARFUM
Let the sweetness in. find moments of levity, no matter the circumstances. indulge in what you love—nobody can take that joy from you. inspired by the moments i savor when the world feels hopeless; long autumn walks with my mom, searching for delicacies, stopping for coffee to warm our hands

Who will remember you if you leave no trace? there’s something so precious about the time we have to say goodbye—trying to embrace the sweetness of the moment but knowing that everything changes as soon as you let it go. referencing familiar childhood scents, SUBLIMATE explores what it means to have substance when all you leave behind is a memory.

PRIMAL YELL
collection: DÉBUT
category: woody, floral, cherry
how long must you scream until someone hears you? there are days where all i want is to shout until my throat bleeds, but i often wonder how much my body could stand before it finally gives out. based around the complexities of labdanum, PRIMAL YELL emulates the feeling of completely releasing yourself into anger and desperation.
NOTE: some bottles in this batch have a bit of solid precipitate in them—this will not effect the performance or usage of the perfume, and has been resolved for future batches
notes
top: hot iron, cherry, bitter almond
mid: labdanum, rose, castoreum
base: patchouli, vetiver, musk
ingredients: ethyl alcohol, perfume, coumarin, citronellol, linalool, geraniol, benzyl benzoate, eugenol
Virginal
collection: Innocence
category: aquatic, fruity, musky
How do you balance the need for touch with the fear of being known? i remember traveling to maine every summer with my family, spending my days playing in the low tide and biking to the local market to buy food for the week––sea salt gently crystallizing on my skin as the briny air dried me off, the smell of fresh berries clinging to my clothes and hair. i want someone to be that close to me.

ABOUT THE BRAND
AMPHORA PARFUM is my love letter to the unanswerable. throughout my life, i’ve found art (especially fragrance) to be the one of the most effective ways to communicate feelings that are too complex to explain in words alone. that being said, scent is so often overlooked in the world of art—and on an equal scale, too frequently viewed+marketed as a “tool” in the world of personal care, rather than a method of self-expression. with AMPHORA PARFUM, it’s my goal to push past those rules and create a world that challenges the current landscape of perfumery. i think of my work as a scented display of emotion; a way to speak for yourself without saying a word.
