You can see what's come before in our archive.

Release #1
An experiment in December 23 (only 10 made). Celebrating the hot Hobart Summer days in the lead-up to New Years Eve 2023 an oil-based perfume that featured a powerful Jasmine and Tasmanian Mountain Pepperberry accord.  SOLD OUT 

Release #2
Summer 24 release was inspired by the Tasmanian lavender and lavandin harvest. A prominent lavender top note with the rounded sweetness of honeysuckle blooms, coriander and clary sage.  SOLD OUT

Release #3
Autumn 24 was a hit. Selling out four batches with an unconventional blend of Tasmanian rosemary and dark sweet woods. Capturing the moment when there's a shift in the air; the sea is still warm (for Tasmania) but mornings are crisp.  A warm woody base of Australian Buddah Wood and a fresh herbal palette of Tasmanian rosemary. SOLD OUT

Release #4
Winter 24's notes of Tasmanian fennel and vanilla captured a feeling of cosy cold and sold out at speed.  Tasmanian Fennel brought sparkle and spice along with cool mellow tones of Australian Blue Cyprus. A scent to wear by the fire or in the snow, spiced and cool.  SOLD OUT

Release #5 
Spring 24 was herbaceous and floral, golden daffodils and wattle putting on a show, bud burst and the grass to mow...Tasmanian Parsley lent a sweet and familiar green note.  Rose and neroli hinted at flowers yet to bloom.  Amyris Wood provides a subtle and sturdy wood base for new beginnings and vibrant growth. SOLD OUT

Release #6
Citrus forward and 100 per cent natural, Summer 25 Tasmanian rollerball oil perfume was ready to dance in the sun; perhaps on the beach with a Tasmanian gin cocktail. Juniper, citrus, the gentle warmth of Buddah Wood and a dash of Tasmanian Rosemary combine ready for beach time, warm evenings and socialising. SOLD OUT

Release #7 - Autumn 25
Batch sizes are slowly growing but Autumn is no longer in production.  Spicy floral woods with the complexity of Tasmanian Mountain Pepperberry, Black Pepper, Amyris and Ho wood oil. A comforting scent for unsettled times. Ho Wood, the oil of peace, lends symbolic intent.

Current release #8 is in production - Winter 25
Nutmeg. Spice. Gourmand.  It's a bit delicious and a little frosty. Nutmeg, cloves & cinnamon are lifted by the fresh sparkle of Tasmanian Mountain Pepper.  A perfume to accompany you through winter and connect you to the awe and introspection of cold winds and biting air.
