MOJAVE ° EXTRAIT DE PARFUM

Vibe ° Palo Santo ° Wild Desert Blooms ° Leather 

Stargazing the night sky at Joshua Tree, the air punctuated by herbaceous high desert notes, with sacred Brazilian black copal, wild white sage, eucalypt and palo santo piercing the cool air, grounded by base notes of leather, mitti attar and oud.

“Sacred notes of palo santo, wild white sage, and black copal, are the incenses of the Americas, burned in ceremony for protection and clarity; as oils they smell as cool as the desert night.”

—Tanaïs, “Mojave,” In Sensorium: Notes For My People

AVAILABLE IN 30 ML AND 50 ML EXTRAIT DE PARFUM

TANAÏS is a Brooklyn-born fragrance and beauty house founded by Hi Wildflower, a Bangla-American writer, perfumer, and activist. Each scent is a story drawn from South Asian heritage, diaspora memory, and the sensory landscapes of travel, devotion, and desire.

The collection spans extrait de parfum, perfume oils, and candles alongside color cosmetics, all crafted with intention and rooted in the belief that fragrance is a form of literature. Evocative names like Mala, Mojave, Pilgrimage, and Heart Chakra speak to a world where beauty is both personal and political.

An independent house with a singular voice. TANAÏS makes scent for those who wear their story on their skin.
