To further help raise funds for Direct Relief and the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank, we are bringing back a selection of SoCal bats from our 2018 Genius Loci line!
The baby bat
Screamed out in fright,
‘Turn on the dark,
I’m afraid of the light.

California Leaf-Nosed Bat Perfume Oil
Add to cartThe California Leaf-Nosed Bat prefers the desert. They’re homebodies and do not migrate, and they’re also definitely Type A bats, as they don’t hibernate. Go go go!
Nightfall in the desert: Mojave yucca, creosote bush, saguaro, dusty clove, and sacred datura.

Pallid Bat Perfume Oil
Add to cartI want my rooftop filled with Pallid Bats. Not only are they cute as hell, but their favored meal is the Arizona bark scorpion, whose sting is the most venomous to be found in North America.
Bats > Scorpions
(Sorry, Scorpios!)Tea leaf, bourbon, a sting of white ginger, and Italian bergamot swirled in amber incense smoke.
