Supernatural Future as an inspiration for me, took shape in creating a “new world” wine inspired perfume. It highlights the aspects about New Zealand’s terrior that are futuristic and under development. What does that mean, exactly? Simply put, New Zealand is a New World territory for culinary treasures- namely wine and truffles. The terroir is a chrysalis; ripe with possibility and evolution. Upon research for this perfume, I found that Truffle spores didn’t even reach New Zealand until 1987 and vineyard cultivation was just barely preceding by about a decade. As a perfume, it was only natural for me to pair the decadence of Truffle with full bodied wine notes. The end result? A verdant, dark fruit fragrance laden with brambly vineyard roses, truffle, roots, moss, mineral rich soil, sea brine and ambergris.


“Truffle is a challenging accord to accomplish because every kind of truffle has it’s own aromatic/taste profile. I did numerous mods with various materials. Each time the truffle accord took different positions in the perfume- sometimes it arranged itself as a top note, other times as a middle note and sometimes sinking down to the base or hiding itself altogether in the woods. Just a whisper of truffle goes a long way. Adding too much was easy and produced undesirable results. I like how truffle is animalic, skanky and gritty- my kind of secret note that makes my amp go to eleven.”
