questions, asked quietly.

what is olfactory literature?

every fragrance begins as an original poem, written in romanian. the scent is its translation. every bottle travels with its poem, so you can wear one and read the other.

what concentration are the perfumes?

extrait de parfum, at 20%, for every volume.

how long does it last?

it depends on your skin and on the season. kryvoc stays close to the skin and leaves the room alone. measured wear times for each volume will be published on its page before the first bottle is sold.

why only 50 ml?

one format, one object. the bottle, the carved cap and the poem card are made for each other. we prefer to make one thing, slowly.

how should i keep it?

away from light and heat, with the cap closed. a drawer is better than a bathroom shelf. perfume keeps its voice longest in the dark.

do you deliver?

within the european union, and delivery is free. it is part of the price of every bottle. the courier and the delivery times will be published before the first bottle is sold. the list hears first.

when can i have arici?

arici is in its final stage of formulation. leave your address on the list and you will hear first. being on the list is not an order, and it asks nothing of you.

how many bottles are there?

each volume is a numbered edition of five hundred. when they are gone, the volume is closed.

what comes with the bottle?

the poem, printed on a card, romanian on one side and english on the other. and a cap carved by hand from walnut, unlike any other cap.

is it for men or for women?

a poem does not ask who is reading it.

where is it made?

in romania. every bottle is filled and sealed by hand, then labelled by hand.
