A concept that called to us from deep within, The Mushroom Collection is a thought-provoking exploration of the facets of humanity so often hidden, yet encapsulated – and reflected back to us – so incandescently in the fungi kingdom. Inspired to delve into the deepest corners of scent, we immersed our noses in the notions of darkness, damp, and decay. Notes that, on the surface, seem at odds with our olfactive desires, yet reveal a raw and refined sophistication the longer we revel in their complexities.

NO. 1 ORANGE, AGARWOOD, SAFFRON MILK CAP
A celebration of unexpected beauty that reveals itself as time passes. Taking inspiration from that final orange in the fruit bowl, Saffron Milk Cap unravels and explores the intricacies of ageing. An unmistakable burst of orange citrus, softened over time with a familiar, fermented cloak of earthen sweetness. As the dimpled skin disintegrates underside, deep resinous agarwood comes to the fore, finished with the smooth, creamy notes of saffron milk cap. A blend at once elegant and intriguing, wherein a subtle yet comforting strangeness belies its true beauty.
NO. 2 REISHI MUSHROOM, VIOLET LEAF, JUNIPER BERRY, PETRICHOR
A sharpness cuts through coastal air, as agitated sea water swirls beneath wind-whipped skies. Majestic waves crash and break, making way for frothy foam clouds of algae and driftwood left in their wake. That familiar oceanic musk permeates the air, echoing the damp yet decadent aura of the centuries-old shacks dotting the rugged shoreline. Soothing violet leaf and warm pimento oil unfurl over bursts of spicy juniper berry, awakening the senses and inspiring desire for something deeper. Beneath the surface, the petrichor of soft cashmere woods kissed by the sea reveal the murky, multifaceted beauty of Reishi Mushroom.– a paragon of relaxation, redefined with a chic, earthen energy.
NO. 3 SHIITAKE, THYME, ROSEMARY, OAK
Inhale, the atmosphere abundant with the unmistakable warmth of moistened earth. Enveloped in its mesmerising yet moody aura, you exhale. A winding walk through the majestic oak trees, where dark leaves and decaying woods once tall and proud blanket the forest floor. Beneath the leafy canopy where sun seldom breaks, a tantalising tangle of deep moss, thyme and rosemary takes hold. Glowing notes of amber and leather strengthen underneath the surface, kissed with hints of jasmine just so. A sophisticated expression of umami, Shiitake speaks to those who see beauty amid the broken.
