Held close for five years, shaped slowly with intention, Apothec releases its first in an ongoing series of small run compositions. Created and hand blended by founder & perfumist, Tricia Boor, Nelumbra No. 13 moves between worlds. Lotus in its soft, aqueous bloom, luminous and fleeting, resting into the quiet depth of oud, warm, resinous, and enduring. It is a fragrance that was not rushed into being, but returned to again and again, until it felt whole. Only 13 bottles exist, each one a limited, deliberate expression of this beginning, held in balance between light and shadow, bloom and wood.

The lotus has carried profound meaning across cultures for thousands of years, symbolizing creation, purity, and spiritual awakening. In ancient Egypt, it was linked to the daily rebirth of the sun and the god Ra, blooming each morning from dark waters as a sign of renewal. In India, within Hinduism and Buddhism, the lotus represents divine beauty, enlightenment, and the ability to rise above earthly attachments, often depicted beneath figures like Lakshmi and Buddha. In China, it is a symbol of harmony and integrity, admired for its elegance and poetic presence. Across these traditions, its growth from murky depths into a pristine bloom has made it a powerful emblem of resilience, transformation, and inner clarity.

Beyond its symbolism, the lotus, especially Nelumbo nucifera, has long been valued for its gentle yet restorative properties. Its flowers are often used in teas to promote calm and relaxation, while the seeds provide antioxidants that support digestion and heart health. Lotus root is nourishing and rich in fiber, vitamin C, and potassium, and extracts are commonly used in skincare for their soothing, hydrating, and balancing effects. Altogether, the lotus stands as a quiet reflection of grace and endurance, an enduring reminder that even from still, shadowed waters, something radiant can emerge, unfolding slowly into beauty untouched by what lies beneath 🪷

.nyc have arrived, and each scent is a world of its own. Rich with character, layered with intention, and designed to unfold slowly on the skin.

Byronic Hero is darkly romantic and a little untamed, opening with a flash of citrus and aromatic herbs before slipping into a brooding heart of florals and spice. As it deepens, warm woods, soft leather, and resinous amber emerge, creating something moody, poetic, and quietly intense, like a lingering glance you can’t quite forget.

Ruche feels golden, textured, and softly sweet, honeyed notes and delicate florals bloom at the heart, wrapped in a gentle warmth that feels both comforting and refined. There’s a subtle powderiness and a touch of waxy richness, grounded by smooth woods and a whisper of musk that sits close to the skin.

Sour Diesel is vibrant, green, and a little rebellious, bright, almost electric citrus and sharp herbal notes cut through at the top, giving way to a lush, resinous heart. Earthy greens and smoky undertones settle in, creating a scent that feels alive, unexpected, and boldly modern.

Frisson d’Hiver captures that quiet, sparkling chill of winter air, crisp aldehydes and cool citrus open the fragrance before soft florals and sheer woods drift in. It dries down into a clean, musky softness with hints of frost-kissed greenery, evoking the hush of cold mornings and pale sunlight.

Priscus is ancient, grounding, and deeply transportive, resins and incense rise immediately, rich and meditative, layered with warm spice and subtle sweetness. As it settles, dry woods, amber, and a soft balsamic depth create something timeless and enveloping, like stepping into a sacred, forgotten space.

Each fragrance tells its own story, from light to shadow, softness to depth, and now that they’re all here, they’re ready to be discovered, worn, and lived in.

Golden and ever-reaching, the sunflower has long been a symbol of devotion, loyalty, and quiet resilience. In folklore, it is said to follow the sun out of love, rooted in the tale of a nymph who adored the sun god so deeply she transformed into a bloom that forever turns toward the light. Sunflowers remind us to seek warmth, to stand tall through shifting skies, and to find radiance even after the longest shadows 🌻
