DESCRIPTION
A touch of bergamot opens Birch, soothes the spicy notes and brings sensuality and softness. However, this fragrance is all about the rich, gentle wood notes such as guaiac, with a hint of pink pepper providing the nuance and the final kick.
Birch is a family cabin tucked away in the arctic tundra, where a campfire is burning under the midnight sun and tomorrow is a million kilometers away. While she was working on her latest fragrance creation, Birch, Maack moved to her family's wooden hut, a refuge hidden in the Icelandic highlands. Originally built by her grandfather in the 50s, she spent most of her summertime there as a child, breathing in the scent of the birch trees that surround the hut.
