Year of the Horse collections have flooded retail with galloping imagery and symbolic red accents, and the Scentbird Year of the Horse Capsule Collection dives deeper into symbolic themes of freedom, strength and vitality through notes that are bold and rugged.
Some of the curated scents that made the cut and exude "modern cowboy energy" include Arabians Musk by Montale, which provides a journey through the Moroccan desert with notes of Medjool dates, honey, orange blossom, vanilla and tonka beans, and DS & Durga’s Cowgirl Grass, with notes of lychee and bergamot, a flowery heart and a base of sweet musk and amber.
Scentbird’s pocket-sized Golden Horseshoe Fragrance Case, adorned with a design featuring ropes and horseshoes in gold, provides a convenient, stylish way to take scent to go.
