Why a copy is a guess.

Flip any cologne over. The ingredients just say “parfum”. The real formula never leaves the brand that made it. So a copy starts as a guess.

Then the dear ingredients get swapped for cheaper ones that smell close on the first spray.

That’s why it smells right in the shop and different by lunch.

A copy, or ours.

How mine get made.

From scratch.

Every scent is my own. I’ve been making fragrance for over five years, and none of it is copied from anyone.

Made for a moment.

Going-out scents are built to carry further, so people notice when you walk in. Day scents are fresher and lighter, so you’re not overdoing it on a coffee run.

Tested on the people who’ll smell it.

I sit down with women, get them to smell each one, and change it based on what they say.

Small batches.

Made in small batches here in Marrickville. Ranges sell out, so when it’s in, it’s in.

Be the judge. Find the ones that suit you.

What you wear now, where you’d wear it, how you dress, smells you like. About a minute.

How it works.

1

You answer a few everyday questions.

What you wear now, where you’d wear it, how you dress, the smells you already like. No fragrance words needed.

2

We pick your six.

Matched against more than five thousand answers from men who told us what they liked.

3

You wear them properly.

Packed within one to two business days. Then you wear each one for its job and see which you reach for.

4

Swap what misses.

Email us within thirty days and we’ll swap it for a different scent. Postage is on us.

Questions.

What if I don’t like one of them?

Email us within thirty days and we’ll swap it for any other scent in the range. It just needs to be unused or barely used, and in its box. Postage is on us.

Is it a copy of something?

No. Every scent is written from scratch, here in Marrickville. Not designer. Not a dupe. Our own.

Why six and not one?

Because picking one fragrance off a screen is a guess, and you already know it. Six gives you something different to wear day to day, and a month to work out which one is actually you. It is also NZ$279 for the lot, instead of NZ$654.

Can I get samples first?

No. Samples are the thing that does not work. Two sprays on a card tells you how it opens and nothing about how it sits on you an hour later. Full bottles and a free swap does that job properly.

When will it arrive?

Shipping is free, anywhere in New Zealand. We pack your order within one to two business days.

Don’t take my word for it. Wear it for thirty days.
