DS & Durga Rose Pacific ~ new fragrance

Posted by Robin on 2 June 2026 5 Comments

Indie brand DS & Durga has launched Rose Pacific, a new limited edition fragrance (and see also: Rose Atlantic).

Laid back Cali rose. Nair a cloud over sun-soaked apricot and avocado trees. Sea spray. Poppy. The Craftsman Bungalow. Catch it before it’s gone!

We are world builders. We are passionate about expanding upon the landscapes of our perfumes. Our Rose Atlantic perfume sings the story of summer in New England. It’s a vision of pink salt spray roses by the Atlantic coast. Roses-by-the-sea is a D.S. & Durga staple. California and the grand Pacific are big sources of inspiration for Kavi & me—a pair of East Coast kids. The flora of Cali is endless enchanting. So too is the sea, the cities, the mountains, the architecture, and the history. We repainted our sea rose with distinct West coast textures. It is fruitier, green, and sweeter than its cousin. The scent feels fresh & contemporary and I hope will provide a fun contrast to our rose-by-the-sea world. Where should we go next? -D.S.

Additional notes include persian lime, apricot, avocado, peach, fine sand and vanilla musk.

DS & Durga Rose Pacific is available in 50 ml Eau de Parfum, $225.

    “Nair a cloud” is a case in point for real-live proofreaders. 😂

      Oh! Now I am picturing a big puffy “cloud” of white foam from that pink aerosol can some of us had in our bathrooms in the 80s…

    Ack! I can still vividly recall the smell of Nair even though it’s been forever since I’ve used it.
