Duets: simple two-note perfumes. I had been looking for ways to unwind this past winter, so I created these two-note combinations as part of my relaxation process. It felt in many ways like humming a tuneless lullaby to myself, and much like a scented meditation. The result is a small series of gently entwined scents, an olfactory pas de deux.
These perfumes are ideal for layering, or can be worn alone. Duets will be appearing and disappearing here and there with the Lunacies throughout 2019.

Sedgewick –
This is a fantastic scently duet. I was a fan of oud already as a note, but this here on the skin is a delight. From my own chemistry, it settles and warms to a rich, somewhat sweet and heady scent, and it’s been a cozy comfort for this rainy, chilly day. (Sidenote, added bonus that apparently it has an avid fan in my husband, who was particularly struck by it when I passed him earlier, hahaha)
