Friday the 13th - 16: Phantom Light

Phantom Light is a tribute to the strange, quiet beauty of Marfa, Texas. First documented in 1883, unexplained lights have shimmered in the night sky just outside of town: orbs of red, amber, blue, and white dance over the vast Chihuahuan desert. No one knows what they are — spirits, aliens, static electricity, or heat-induced hallucinations — but those who see them never forget.

Their fragrance is a tribute to Marfa’s enduring mystery, where art, isolation, and the supernatural converge. It begins with a breath of cool ozone and a dry sparkle of pink pepper, like the first glint of light against a darkening horizon. Agave nectar, cholla cactus, and desert willow accords weave through the heart, nodding to desert flora and the rugged beauty of the Chihuahuan desert. A soft veil of orris root recalls the faded glamour of desert eccentrics and ethereal wanderers. The drydown rests on mineral amber, native Mesquite wood, and a sunbaked cloth accord reminiscent of dusty denim and faded linen.

Minimalist and mysterious, Phantom Light belongs to the liminal: between day and night, art and myth, this world and the next. It invites you to dwell in the quiet between certainty and wonder, where the desert breathes and something otherworldly watches from afar.

☾ Notes: ☽

The cool stillness of dusk settling over the Texas high desert: a wisp of static ozone, native desert flora, ghostly orris, a crack of pink peppercorn, threadbare denim, sunbaked dry woods, faded linen

☾ Fragrance Family: ☽ A rugged, dry atmospheric with warm woody and herbaceous sheer floral facets. Like night in the desert it's haunting, minimal, and beautifully strange.

Similar In Mood To: Bears some resemblance to other minimalistic/ozonic fragrances like The Book Of Stars, Groom Lake, or This House Is Clean, but more earthy with a warmer/woodier finish. We don't actually have many that smell like this one!
