The complete language between the botanicals and our body

Posted by Robin on 25 May 2021 4 Comments

I’m a true believer in the complexity of natural ingredients. I feel that if I do not use them, people will not like my scents. When I smell synthetic molecules—and some are fascinating—I believe that you get an idea that you are smelling something beautiful or magnetic but the pheromones are not being released and time is not being altered. You are missing the complete language between the botanicals and our body.

— Julian Bedel talks to Cool Hunting about his brand, Fueguia 1833. Read more in Fragrance Brand Fueguia 1833 Founder Julian Bedel On The Inspiring Science Behind Scent.

The carbon-dominant odor of a well-traveled spacesuit

Posted by Robin on 3 November 2014 Leave a Comment

Bedel’s Equación, for example, is meant to evoke what he imagines to be the carbon-dominant odor of a well-traveled spacesuit; it smells like smoked ham to me. His Vaca Muerta (“dead cow”) is gasoline- and sulfur-heavy, reflecting Bedel’s concern about fracking in Patagonia. Even his friendlier scents tell a story: A perfume called Pope Francis, commemorating the world’s most famous Argentine, combines frankincense and maté to dreamy effect.

— The California Sunday Magazine talks to Julian Bedel of niche line Fueguia 1833. Read more at The Alchemist: For Julian Bedel, perfume is a surrealist medium. Hat tip to Oakland Fresca!
