Himalayan blackberry fruit, dry grass and leaves, elemi, cedar wood and resin, amber, fir balsam absolute, musk.
Blackbird celebrates the dry season and the warm, peaceful days of summer in the Pacific Northwest, when walking anywhere from a country road to a city greenspace brings the powerful scent of tawny dry grass, fir and cedar trees baking in the sun releasing their sharp, incense-like resins, and juicy ripe blackberries tempting us and the blackbirds with their jammy, musky sweetness. Although inspired by nature, Ellen Covey’s Blackbird is sophisticated and paradoxical, but very wearable for anyone who enjoys the juxtaposition of dry ambery-woody notes with a touch of sweet, juicy fruit.
