Details on D.S. & Durga Bowmakers

Amid the transcendental woods of the 1800s, craftsmen from the Massachusetts Bay Colony built violins and bows. Old growth mahogany, burled maple shavings, amber pine rosin, aged walnut and unique secret varnishes.

How does D.S. & Durga Bowmakers smell?

A masterful blend of woodworking aromas, opening with a sharp violin varnish and mahogany, transitioning through resinous pine and cypress notes, and settling into a base of warm cedar and moss. The scent captures the authentic atmosphere of a traditional luthier's workshop.

Artistry

All the artistry of the perfume world. An artist's studio stands in the forest, smelling of varnish and oiled wood. Remaining embers in the fireplace. Pure fragrance avant-garde.

At the violin workshop

It smells thoroughly of wood, as if they were towering up around you on the left and right. Unfortunately, the fragrance loses its magic on my skin. I then only smell a plastic glove like at the dentist's.
