The fragrant companion to New York Times perfume critic Chandler Burr’s novel of the same name, the perfume and novel centers around Anne, a recent transplant to the crisp Los Angeles air, with a penchant for gardening. Realistic, dewy greens, city ozone, and the slightest hint of something earthy tell a whole story without a single word. What story? As Mr. Burr himself says, “The work is the work.

Notes include mint, grapefruit, bergamot, anise, green notes, cassis, rose and hedione, and white musk.

In the Free Orange State, there are no constraints and nothing is off limits. As the company declares in its manifesto, "Perfume is dead. Long live perfume!"
