PINEWARD PERFUMES

Hayloft: hay, lavender, honey*, crocus, sweet vernalgrass, bison grass, toasted almond, hazelnut, oats, dusty wheat.

Dusty loft where bundled bales of hay and straw are stored against winter. Seasons' preserve of sweet lavender honey and sacks of oats and red winter wheat. Created using a custom extracted base of hay, bison grass and sweetgrass. This extract resulted in a rough and gorgeous hay/sweetgrass/bison grass concrete, which was then filtered and evaporated to create a rich co-absolute. Two hay perfumes were created with this material: Hayloft & Hayride.

In the midst of a darkened library lies the Tome of the Unknown, dusty pages burdened with the weight of hidden knowledge and terrible secrets. It rests for now, waiting patiently for new victims to ensnare and spirit away to forgotten realms. 

Woody elements of sandalwood and cedar mix with book smells of leather, paper and glue and are supported with the ambient scents of black tea, coffee, and tobacco. Tome features a vintage book accord that is based on headspace chemical analysis of old books and libraries.

"Enter the enchanted forest at its darkest - and brightest. Sandarac, tamarack and balsam set a deep and haunting baseline - A minor chord of Snoqualmie Forest evergreens beckons as owl feathers flutter above the damp earth."

A previously offered and long discontinued perfume inspired by Twin Peaks: The Return. We have obtained the original formula rights to this perfume, and while the original name is under trademark and cannot be mentioned, this new revival version is titled 'Snoqualmie'.

99% natural formulation

Notes: hay, oatmeal, hazelnut, bergamot, lavender, herbal tea, westfarthing leaf (tobacco), seed cake, jasmine, orris, and honey*.

The scent of field and glen covered in the golden grasses of harvest season. Shire started as a lighter re-imagining of Hayloft that ended up being fairly different and focuses more on the sweeter/coumaric facets of hay. The formula uses many of the same materials but in drastically different ratios and at a lighter concentration. I decided to give it a different name than Hayloft EDT as it felt like the final version was too different to be considered a flanker and there was some confusion about the name.

Eau de Toilette concentration

Note: the perfume is a lighter yellow than it appears in this picture.

*Non-Vegan

Lichen-crusted stones, mineralic glacial pools, low-hanging clouds and high alpine scrubland coming alive in the spring. Inspired by the Holy Cross Wilderness region nestled within Colorado's Rocky Mountains, including Mystic Island Lake and the Mount of the Holy Cross.

Eau de Toilette concentration.
