Hawthorne’s Muse
A quiet room, a sharpened pencil, and the weight of thought
$125 · Eau de Parfum
The Story
The Berkshires.
A writer’s desk.
Morning light on old wood.
Pages waiting to be filled.
Hawthorne’s Muse is inspired by the writers of New England — Louisa May Alcott, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and their contemporaries — and the quiet, inward worlds in which their work was born. It is a fragrance of stillness and concentration, where thought moves slowly and ideas take shape in silence.
This is the scent of solitude chosen, not imposed — a moment of deep focus, imagination, and resolve.
The Scent
Frankincense
— resinous, contemplative, and quietly luminous
Sandalwood
— warm, smooth, and grounding
Soft woods & subtle florals
— restraint, balance, and depth
A gentle veil of musk
— skin, warmth, and intimacy
The Feeling
Early morning quiet
Ink and paper
Thought unfolding slowly
Creative solitude
Why You’ll Love It
A refined woody composition with quiet depth
Intellectual, meditative, and elegant
Inspired by literary history and place
Unisex, understated, and deeply wearable
Crafted in small batches
