BESPOKE PERFUME

Once and Once Only

On my path along wine, I’ve irrevocably been infected with the vitalizing spirit of fragrances. The fleeting beauty of scented moments.

An emotional journey

Merely present — yet hiding in plain sight

A vivid dance of molecules

An on-going arriving

A constant becoming

A never-ending concealing

A liminal experience

During a wonderful encounter with eccentric Master Perfumer Roja Dove, I was convinced to leave behind my own scented fingerprint:

Enigmatic

Edgy

Elegant

I solely create bespoke perfumes, made with premium, predominantly natural materials sourced from ‘Hermitage Oil’ in Tuscany, ‘Olfatorium’ in Barcelona, and ‘Liason Carbon’ in Berlin.

Each Eau de Parfum is created Ad Hominem - a singular experience, emerging into the world, Once and Once Only

Aber weil Hiersein viel ist, und weil uns scheinbar

alles das Hiesige braucht, dieses Schwindende, das

seltsam uns angeht. Uns, die Schwindendsten. Ein Mal

jedes, nur ein Mal. Ein Mal und nicht mehr. Und wir auch

ein Mal. Nie wieder. Aber dieses

ein Mal gewesen zu sein, wenn auch nur ein Mal:

irdisch gewesen zu sein, scheint nicht widerrufbar

RAINER MARIA RILKE - DIE NEUNTE ELEGIE 1912-1922

But because being here is plenty, and as seemingly

everything here needs us, this fleeting world, which

strangely concerns us. Us, the most fleeting of all.

Everything once, once only. Once and no more. And we too

once. Never again. But having been

once, although only once:

having being one with the earth, seems irrevocable.
