The collection
DROP 01 — Industrial Objects explores the contrast between industrial packaging and handcrafted fragrance.
Each object begins with the same anonymous aluminium can. Open it, and a different world emerges.
Watch Me Glow brings bright citrus and warm woods. Slow Burn Baby unfolds through leather, saffron and dark resins. Sweet But Not Sorry balances fresh citrus, green tea and soft botanicals.
Three fragrances. Three atmospheres. One idea.
Unexpected outside. Bold inside.
