Discontinued Scent Notes
What's this?
Well, we rotate some (ok, a lot!) of our fragrances annually. Some of our suppliers stop making seasonal ingredients, and also we get bored and need space in the lab for new things.
The intention here is to have an imperfect, constantly added-to list. I'm copying and pasting directly off of our shop notes to get the first big batch up and running. You'll notice that it isn't formatted perfectly, and there will be misspellings here and there. I had to either let my perfectionism go, or never, ever do it. It is here, and it is perfectly imperfect!
It's a very long document, so I suggest you use CTRL+F or another search method of your choice to skip through to what you're looking for. Enjoy!

TESSERACT COLLECTION
Mandy sighed. For one infinitesimal second, everything was right in the world. She smiled, her heart full to bursting. Her whole family was together, in the correct universe. The tears fell from her eyes without her even knowing they had started, but before she could even wipe her face, the doorbell rang. “No. No more people. I don’t want any other people in our house right now,” Mandy said, charging to the front door. “Why are you acting so strangely?” her mom called out behind her. Mandy ignored her and peered out the peephole. Nobody was there. She let out the breath she hadn’t realized she’d been holding, and turned to walk back to her family. “It’s okay, nothing to worry about,” she called out to her parents and sisters, who were staring at her. “I just didn’t want anything to interrupt our family time! We hardly….” Before she could finish her thought, the doorbell rang again. Continue reading here.
Scent Notes: Tart black cherries, expensive vanilla, Egyptian musk.
Mandy was stunned. Mr. Jones kept laughing maniacally, long after it was appropriate to stop. His face was bright red and he was wheezing, nearly on the verge of collapse. But that’s not what Mandy was concentrating on. Her own mother was crying, shaking her head, unable to look Mandy in the eye. What had Mr. Jones meant when he said her father was dead and it was her own mother’s fault? Did her mother kill her father? Was she an innocent bystander who watched him die? Did she send him into another dimension with aliens during her initial trials of traveling through the tesseract?.... Continue reading here.
Scent Notes: Blood oranges and vanilla cream.
Mandy awoke in a small, cramped room on a small, hard cot. She had a terrible headache, the worst she’d ever had. And she was no stranger to headaches, as migraines ran in the family. Her mother had them a few times a year, which left Mandy to be in charge of her sisters while their mom was out for the count for up to three straight days. She’d yet to have a migraine, but she imagined it couldn’t be too different from what she was currently experiencing. She swung her legs over to the side and bent over the edge of the cot, holding her head in her hands until the pounding subsided a little bit. There was a tray just in front of her feet, which was just in front of the door, where there was a small slot that could be unlocked so the tray could slide in. There was what appeared to be a sandwich wrapped in foil, an apple, and an incredibly tiny bottle of water on the tray. To her right was a wall. To her left there was a small toilet, and above it, a sink, jammed into the corner between her cot and the wall. It was basically a prison cell, although she knew in her gut she wasn’t in an actual prison as the small window at the top of the room wasn’t barred, and the door was a proper heavy door made of metal, not just a row of bars. But she was either in total shade or the light into the window was totally blocked, as no real light ever seemed to shine into the room. She felt in her pockets; they’d taken everything. She was trapped in this room, alone, with no way out and nothing to do.... Continue reading here.
Scent Notes: Rich vanillas infused with cream.
“Sir, I have some bad news. The, uh … the girls have gotten away again,” the lackey said to his boss. At hearing the news, the boss threw his coffee mug into the wall, where it smashed spectacularly. The boss in question was only known as Mr. Jones, and he was feared by everyone he worked with. The lackey left and appeared a minute later with a roll of paper towels and a broom, and began to clean up the remnants of the smashed mug.
“Again! How are you all so incompetent?” Mr. Jones asked. The lackey looked like he was about to stop and answer him, but Mr. Jones just waved him off and out of the room. He pushed a button on his desk, which closed his office door with a loud bang.... Continue reading here.
Scent Notes: Coconut fruit and milk infused with rich, black tea. Sandalwood and milky sweetness.
“Neverwas.” What did that mean, exactly? Mandy’s brain had gone completely blank, her body felt numb. The twins were still running around, shrieking, without a care in the world. She knew they were smart, but like, couldn’t they understand this was not a time for playing and screaming? Their mother was missing somewhere, leaving behind only a cryptic note. She’d seen a weird, robotic version of her father that was also definitely not her father. Her brain felt scrambled, which made sense, because she had just traveled through space and time and was immediately thrown into trying to solve this mystery of her missing mother. Her eyes were dry from already crying; her throat hurt from screaming; all she wanted to do was go to sleep and wake up and realize this had all been a horrible dream.... Continue reading here.
Scent Notes: A bright guava mousse.
“You’ll never catch me!” Mandy yelled, sprinting through the field. The long blades of grass brushed up to her thighs, encouraging her to run faster, go further. She saw the cliff in the distance; she knew she could climb up to safety. She could feel them gaining on her. Faster, harder, her brain yelled at her as she scrambled up the rock on all fours. “Get the girl!” they were yelling, closing in faster, shortening the chasm between them. She scrambled up the rocks, pulling herself up one hand at a time, willing herself to keep going up. After what felt like hours, she finally reached the top, and stopped for one second to catch her breath. She could hear them scrambling, tripping over each other in their frantic race to catch her. Mandy looked down, took a deep breath, and ran off the edge just as they reached the top of the cliff. She screamed as her body hurtled through the air; she was soaring, flying, untouchable, into the vast open expanse…. Continue reading here.

Scent Notes: An abandoned wood cabin in the middle of the forest, the spicy aromas drifting through the air of a Mediterranean bazaar, black musky ancient catacombs beneath the earth, somehow full of sandalwood musk yet no living soul can be seen, the bodies of hundreds of men lining the walls, threatening to tumble onto you and trap you for eternity in their hallowed, haunted hallways.
Scent Notes: Lemon, fresh lemon verbena, fancy dark chocolate.
Scent Notes: Peaty oakmoss from an expensive bottle of Scotch you only drink from on special occasions, a carpet of clover on the floor of an ancient enchanted forest, a piece of overpriced-yet-worth-it avocado toast from that hipster cafe that always has a 2 hour wait but is actually, surprisingly worth it, sitting under the dense canopy of a grove of giant red oak trees and enjoying the stillness and silence.

THE VILLAINESS COLLECTION (or: The bumbling adventures of Captain Mansplain)
“It’s really quite simple,” Captain Mansplain said. “I found your secret lair in the easiest way: you sent me a note to come here to, I believe you said, ‘Meet my doom.’” He made exaggerated air quotes as he said it, because of course he did. “Although I don’t believe you really meant that, and let me explain why.”
“No, that’s exactly what I--” Feminista started to say.
Continue reading here
Scent Notes: A cauldron full of a dark, bubbling, poisonous liquid with a distinct animal musk note wafting from the fumes and simmering bubbles, oudh wood, spicy dragon’s blood.
Captain Mansplain awoke in a dungeon he didn’t recognize, with a splitting headache. “This is definitely not my own personal dungeon, where I have absolutely never awoken after a rowdy night with a woman I most sincerely did not pay for who robbed me and locked me in my own dungeon. I’d recognize that place. This dungeon is most sincerely a foreign dungeon. Probably that rotten Feminista’s place. Ugh.”
