A conversation with Ocean Vuong on
'On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous'

LITERTURE

Created in conversation with poet Ocean Vuong, exploring scent as marker of decay and rebirth. This fragrance translates Vuong's New England—spring screaming into being while tobacco cures, rotting books in used bookstores, incense ceiling stains from immigrant rituals, the pause between breaths where memory lives.
