Entering the interior of the Yucatan peninsula seems like a journey inward. The vast beauty of coast is far behind. The long roads stretch on through dense jungle to the horizon. One moves towards sacred ground where advanced civilizations built massive monuments to the Gods. Once thriving cities are preserved in russet orange limestone ruins. Overgrown green vines and dark grasses swallow temples back into the jungle. Fruits hang heavy in the foliage like the humid air of the Yucatan - redolent of jungle flowers. Crocodiles hunt in the cool waters of cenotes. Natives burn copal resin - used for hundreds of years or more, it reminds us of holy ceremonies. The jasmine plants speak of animalic powder, a shocking complex aroma – like spotting the pattern of a jaguar among a monotony of green vegetation.

ABOUT THE BRAND
D.S & DURGA is an american perfume brand founded in 2009 by a musician David Seth Moltz (D.S.) and an architect Kavi Ahuja Moltz (Durga). They started from scratch and did it they way. They were pioneers in DYI Brooklyn. They began by turning things they loved into sctend stories of cowboys, open terrain, Russian novel characters, and folk song. D.S. & DURGA creates fragrances that live on the level of great music, painting, and literature. A perfume is a world you can return to over and over again - a keyhole into far off places - material and imaginary. Each fragrance is an amalgamation of impressions, heavy research, memories, and unconventional ideas born in the mind of David, creating imaginative scents with realism and purpose. The perfume boxes are designed with eco-conscious materials and are 100% recyclable. Stories are nothing unless they are told. They are printed on the box. Every perfume has a playlist. Find D.S. & DURGA on spotify.com.
