Flightless Bird Perfume
A fragrance of quiet magnetism - beauty that reveals itself slowly.
Flightless Bird opens with mirabelle plum and wild berries, their richness softened by crisp pear nectar and a subtle spark of black pepper. The brightness feels luminous but restrained, like twilight settling over the landscape.
At the heart, white oleander emerges with a clean floral softness, slightly green and delicate. The scent draws inward rather than outward, creating an intimacy that feels close to the skin.
As it deepens, amber woods and patchouli provide warmth and quiet structure, while vetiver lends an earthy smoothness with the faintest whisper of smoke.
Lush but composed, Flightless Bird evolves gently throughout the day - shifting from fruit-lit dusk to something deeper, softer, and more reflective.
A scent inspired by still evenings in the Pacific Northwest, where fading light lingers through open windows and the air carries memory.
How do I layer it? +
For the deepest, longest-lasting scent, build it in layers: start in the shower with the 16 oz Body or Hand Wash or a Bath Bomb, seal it in with the 16 oz Lotion or 8 oz Whipped Body Butter, then spray the perfume on top. Fragrance clings to moisturized skin, so your scent lasts hours longer. Choose them from the size menu above. Then set the mood at home with the matching Flightless Bird Candle.
Which size should I choose? +
2ml Discovery Vial: a few days of wear, perfect for testing on your skin. 10–15 ml: travel and purse size. 50 ml: your signature bottle and the best value per ml. Extrait de Parfum is the most concentrated and closest to the skin, Eau de Parfum is rich and long-wearing, and Eau de Toilette is lighter and brighter.
How do I make it last? +
Spray on moisturized skin at your pulse points (neck, wrists, behind the ears) and a mist on clothing or hair. Don't rub your wrists together, which breaks down the top notes faster.
What's the free mystery sample? +
Every order of $65 or more gets a surprise sample, hand-picked by us from our fragrance library. You don't choose it. That's half the fun, and it's how many customers find their next favorite.
Shipping +
