I don't usually wear a scent—they typically give me a headache or make me sneeze.
A couple months back I dropped in on our friends at (MALIN + GOETZ) and they gave me a preview of their new pair of unisex scents, Synthesized Lotus Root and Rum Tonic. Lotus Root, or Sophisticated Hippie as I've been calling it, really stuck in my head. Combining lotus, sandlewood, cedar and musk it has an earthy, leathery reference with a grown-up tone. It's meant to be paired with Rum Tonic on a single person or a couple, but I prefer it stand-alone.
The new scents just arrived at the (MALIN + GOETZ) shop today and are also available online. $45.
