July 11th (14:00), we will be hosting a new type of event in collaboration with Tusian (@tusian.notes)! Tusian is a boutique studio dedicated to sensory storytelling and perfumery, run by Rui. She explores the boundless language of aromas, weaving together fragrance, prose, and the culinary arts. During the event we will be making a summery eau de cologne – a citrus-herbal fragrance – with Rui, while also discussing the novel Arborescence by Rhett Davis. Participants will pre-read Arborescence, and preferably note sensory inspirations or feelings during reading. When we get together, Rui will first explain about perfume making. Then we will discuss the book together, with a focus on sensory experiences. Afterwards, we will blend and bottle our own unique perfumes, inspired by the scents in the book and our experiences of them. 

About Arborescence by Rhett Davis
What makes a person want to be a tree? Bren and his partner Caelyn are feeling at a standstill in their lives. One day they come across a video of people in the forest who believe that if they stand still for long enough they will transform into trees. The idea is absurd, but soon, people start to go missing and trees appear in unlikely places. As cities decay and the world becomes greener, Caelyn becomes convinced that arborescence is exactly what will save the planet from human destruction. Bren isn't so sure. Drifting apart, Bren and Caelyn are forced to question what it really means to be human - and if they are ready to stand still.

The workshop will start at 14:00 and end around 16:30, including a break. It will take place at Narwal, our neighbour (Westerkade 4 + 5). A ticket costs €50. That includes the book Arborescence by Rhett Davis and a 10 ml eau de cologne (including your personal recipe and a guidance card for maceration).

Beautiful Watch, and easy to set up.
Color: 5535-ZP-blue
Looks classy, very easy to set the time, day of the week, and date. It is a class cover so it can break if dropped (my kids broke my first one), but it's inexpensive so it wasn't a huge deal. It's easy to read. Battery hasn't died for months. It's easy to put on and the size works for me.

Most important review for this watch and company.
Color: 5566-ZP-blue face, Color: 5566-ZP-blue face
I bought two and they both broke. Customer service has ignored my e-mail. What more do you need to know about a company? I personally wrote them through their own website, so they could keep Amazon out of it. It makes me angry that they won't even reply to my e-mail. I was nice. Both watches broke, neither one if actually water proof. The band is exceptionally thin and it WILL break on you once it arrives. It's so poor, that my body moisture is what got into the face of the watch. What the heck? I've had better 9 dollar watches from Walmart. Zero out of zero for the COMPANY who doesn't care about their customers, and zero out of ten for watch quality. Useless. I wasted 60-80 bucks on two of these! BOTH BROKE! and in more than one way!!!!! Terribly marked up (this is less than a 10 dollar Walmart watch - quality is LOWER than the lowest 3 dollar watches off Temu, Shien, Walmart), customer service is non-existent, and the band WILL BREAK on you. It's worthless. Take your money somewhere else. Attached pictures show the moisture leak from my sweat, but in real life, it's actually much worse. Worthless, not usable. Two of them folks. TWO!

As Advertised
Color: 5535-HP-white
The watch is what I expected, and works upon receipt as advertised. At this price, if it only works for 4-6 months it's easily worth the money. Large, nice looking face, day/date. Wristband is what you'd expect, but adequate and comfortable.
