Inspired by Dickens on the Strand - A celebration of Galveston’s victorian history, Charles Dickens, Edgar Allen Poe, and…pirates…for some reason. Specifically a night when I was celebrating at an after-hours event in full gibson girl getup and got to have an extended conversation with a very merry and very in-character Charles Dickens.
Notes: Hot mulled red wine, flavored with cranberries, warm spices, and orange zest; layered over a traditional chypre perfume base, pipe tobacco, and woods.

This is one of my favorites from Cirrus and truly the perfect winter fruit fragrance. I love the way the citrus and mulled wine notes play off each other! The chypre base brings a beautiful grounding finish to this scent with gorgeous spices. 10/10 - you gotta give this a try!
I loved the name of this perfume, and the notes really excited me—the orange and mulled wine and cranberry sounded right up my alley! I was blown away by the performance and complexity of this scent. It is beautiful, warm, and I could pick up each note throughout wear. This is also how the perfume I’ve received the most compliments on! An all-time favorite for me ❤️
This is a great option for the holidays. The citrus and cranberry come through perfectly, warmed by seasonal spices. Definitely going to be spraying this one for Christmas gatherings with friends and family.
A juicy holiday fruit basket blanketed on a chypre style. Absolutely evoques Christmas. Wonderfully smooth and the fruitiness is not sharp or screechy at all. The citrus really helps balance this and keeps it from leaning too rich. Amazing work
Gosh, this is the FIRST cranberry perfume I’ve smelled that is photorealistic with the red wine. It makes me feel incredibly giddy and cozy all at once, and I enjoy how fruity and bright it is. Images of an Anne of Green Gables Christmas Party comes to mind, laughing and running around with your closest friend, hiding underneath a tablecloth and watching grownup’s shoes walk by and someone having such a good time, they are spilling their drink laughing too hard. I can practically hear someone guffawing at a funny joke. Such a happy scent and I can’t wait to upsize from my sample to have a Christmas Chypre perfume in my collection!
