Late summer: a walk along the American West Coast, old dirt paths, a warm breeze, and sun-yellow flowers stretching their necks playfully into the way. Monkeyflower celebrates the eponymous bloom, native to the western coastal regions of North America. The imported scent of the musk flower swept through Victorian England in the 19th century – from the botanical aristocracy to London street vendors and rural households, it became inescapable. Yet at the dawn of the 20th century, the flower mysteriously lost its fragrance, leaving the scientific community puzzled with a mystery that remains unsolved to this day.

Monkeyflower revives the plant and its unmistakably light, sun-warmed, and at the same time earthy-green character. The composition recalls sun-kissed skin after a long day outdoors and the gentle weariness that only summer can bring.

Stora Skuggan

Stora Skuggan is a niche perfume brand from Sweden, founded in 2015. The brand is run by a small group of perfumers and designers. All work is handcrafted in the Stora Skuggan perfume studio or lab in Stockholm - from the design and production of the fragrances to the creation of the designs and packaging. The perfumes of Stora Skuggan are based on stories that blur the line between myth and reality. At the heart of the brand are these stories, which are conceptualized through scent and art, creating a small and unique universe for each perfume. Fragrances are a way to communicate, tell stories, and experience them. Their unique way of combining extraordinary scents makes each fragrance a work of art - from the manufacturing process to the first use. The difference from a mass-market perfume is that Stora Skuggan uses the right materials, regardless of their cost. Savings through the use of cheap substitutes for expensive oils only make sense if millions of products are to be sold, which is not their focus. Stora Skuggan wants to continue doing what they do without thinking too much about what is happening in the perfume industry. This may seem ignorant, but the goal has always been to remain autonomous, as it is the best approach to creating unique fragrances.
