Wild Brooklyn Lavender is an auto fragrance card, sold as a single card, built on Brooklyn flowering in the early aughts, when wild packs of dogs roamed free among savage weeds. It opens on spike lavender and wayside herbs, sharp and green rather than soapy. The heart brings vetiver grass and lavender flowers, the real bloom instead of the cliche. The base grounds it in suede and asphalt, soft leather over hot sidewalk. Herbal, floral and urban, this is lavender for people who thought they did not like lavender. From the New York fragrance house D.S. & Durga. Scent family: floral herbal aromatic. Unisex. Wears well year round. The Wild Brooklyn Lavender range also includes a 7 oz candle and a 400 mL hand lotion, so you can carry the same lavender from your car to your sink.
