spray 'n swipe!


we love finding rare and unusual things for you guys, so we were stoked to open our store with the incredible six scents perfumes. the six scents fragrance project is an ongoing collaboration between symrise, metaproject and seven new york (one of our favourite stores!). curated by seven new york owner joseph quartana, series one is a collaboration between some of the world's cutting edge designers and leading perfumers.

the perfumes are individually numbered with custom packaging and each fragrance is offered in a limited quantity of 2000 units. a percentage of the proceeds will go towards awareness and funding for the designers against aids (daa), international aids awareness education centre in antwerp, belgium.

we chose to bring you our three favourites:

no. 2 bernhard willhelm with lucas sieuzac - with notes of sea breeze accord, bergamot, water jasmine, sheer musk. the fragrance is unisex, fresh, and futuristic.

no. 3 cosmic wonder with philippe paparella-paris - with notes of green grass, fig leaves, cypress, elemi, coriander, cedar wood, vetiver, hinoki, white amber. inspired by a walk in a eucalyptus forest, this fragrance is unisex, and is initially very rich and tobacco'y, drying down to something more warm, woody and slightly gingery.

no. 4 gareth pugh with emilie coppermann - with notes of dill, black pepper, nutmeg, palissander, black tea, amyris, white amber, musk. probably the most feminine of the three, an intoxicatingly floral scent contrasted with something all together more synthetic and hard to place. it's not hard to see why it's been described as "endlessly intriguing".

each fragrance is $189 and we are happy to ship within new zealand - email shop@childrenofvision.com
