Mistpouffer Eau de Parfum 30mL
Made by hand in Stockholm from the niche perfumers of Stora Skuggan. The citrus and floral fragrance of Mistpouffer features: top notes of immortelle & bergamot, heart notes of fig leaf, pine & ozone, and base notes of smoke, vetiver & malt sugar.
Inspired by the unexplained supernatural sound known as Mistpouffer — a sonic boom like distant cannon fire that seems to come out of the fog over large lakes or rivers. It has been recorded all over the world throughout history, and is the source of many legends. In Japan the phenomenon is called uminari meaning 'cries from the sea'. Early settlers in North America were told by the native Haudenosaunee Iroquois that the booms were the sound of the Great Spirit continuing his work of shaping the earth. Rendering this mystical water thunder as a fragrance was as elusive as the sound itself. Stora Skuggan spent four years and hundreds of iterations before finding the right balance between being distinctive and inexplainable. Foggy but not aquatic, smoky but not heavy. Natural, but in equal parts supernatural.
