Stora Skuggan, the Stockholm-based fragrance artisans known for defying olfactory conventions, introduce “Pine,” their eighth scent that delves deep into the heart of one of Earth’s ancient giants. This isn’t just another woody fragrance; it’s a soliflore that captures the multifaceted essence of the pine tree.
” Pine” distills more than just the scent of needles. It weaves together the rawness of sap seeping from rugged bark, the warmth of aged wood, and the earthy notes of needles blanketing the forest floor. Each spritz unfolds like a narrative that began over 300 million years ago.
Pine trees are more than majestic evergreens—they’re living chronicles of Earth’s history. Standing as tall as skyscrapers and enduring for millennia, they’ve witnessed the rise and fall of civilizations. Legends like Methuselah, the 4,856-year-old bristlecone pine, and Sweden’s own Old Tjikko, with roots stretching back 9,500 years, are testaments to time itself.
With “Pine,” Stora Skuggan captures this timelessness, offering a fragrance that’s both grounded and transcendent. It’s an invitation to connect with nature’s endurance in a world that’s constantly racing forward.
Now available on Stora Skuggan’s website for $150 USD, “Pine” isn’t just a perfume—it’s a sensory journey through the epochs.
