strangelove: The Art of Slow Perfume

The story of strangelove begins with a journey to Borneo in 2013. Founder Elizabeth Gaynes visited family-owned farms and saw the production of sustainable oud. She was captivated by the dedication of the farmers and the rich smell of the oil. She decided to build a brand that honored this rare ingredient. Her goal was to create scents without compromising on quality or ethics.

Supermodel and photographer Helena Christensen joined soon after as Creative Director. She fell in love with the raw oils Gaynes brought back. Together, they established a house based on "slow perfume." This means small batches and hand-crafted formulas. They focus on potent natural materials that commercial brands often avoid due to cost. strangelove explores themes of intimacy and passion. The brand uses sustainable agarwood in every bottle to protect wild trees. It is a mix of luxury, ethics, and deep emotion.

Master Perfumer Christophe Laudamiel creates every scent for strangelove. He is famous for his bold style and skill with difficult naturals. The signature of the brand is the use of real, sustainable oud in every formula blended with other rare ingredients.

Their debut scent, deadofnight, is a cult favorite. It mixes deep wood with damask rose and violet leaf. It has a seductive, animalic quality. For something truly unique, try silencethesea. It uses real ambergris and white truffle to create a raw, salty ocean scent. It is not for everyone, but it is unforgettable.

If you prefer sweeter scents, meltmyheart blends oud with dark chocolate and orris butter. The collection also features the spicy fallintostars and the floral lostinflowers. The scent afirewithin offers a smoky mix of frankincense and vanilla. These are high-concentration perfumes designed to last.
