In the heart of the bustling metropolis lies a hidden oasis, an inner-city garden where individuals gather.
Stepping through the branches, I am enveloped by the scent of crushed leaves and damp earth, mingling with the heady aroma of the forest, and I find secluded corners where anticipation hangs thick in the air, crackling with the promise of cheeky encounters and whispered desires.
Amidst the verdant foliage, I surrender to the intoxicating allure of the garden and the caress of bodies as night blankets the area and my fantasies are unlocked.

HOW IT WEARS
With the first spray of UNDERGROWTH, you’re hit with the scent of ripe cherry complemented by green florals. As it wears, the earthy, alluring smell of wet soil becomes more noticeable, before drying down to reveal resinous base notes. With a 20% parfum concentration, UNDERGROWTH will last 6-8 hours on the skin.
LORE LOVES
We are obsessed with this take on a cherry fragrance. It’s a really realistic cherry, juicy and sweet but not sickly. Like cherries on top of a no sugar, 100% cacao black forest cake. The greener, mossier notes add a sense of nature to the fragrance that when blended with the cherry renders the composition dirtier and more sensual.
ABOUT THE BRAND
Founded in 2023 by John Domjan, ÖRÖK FRAGRANCES is about sharing narratives of queer joy, diversity, adversity and resilience through scent.
“ÖRÖK” is an homage to Domjan’s heritage, meaning inheritance/legacy/eternity in Hungarian. A fitting name, given each ÖRÖK fragrance aims to capture those culturally inherited experiences we all share, and the threads that connect each of our identities to one another. The ÖRÖK outlook is that fragrance isn’t just an accessory, it can act as a representation of who you are.
A Naarm (Melbourne) based brand, many of the ÖRÖK fragrances are evocative of local queer experiences – nights out clubbing, days at the beach with friends, shenanigans in city gardens. That said, the beauty of this range is that everyone and anyone will be able to find something they relate to within it.
Formulated by nose Flora Gourdon, ÖRÖK FRAGRANCES are truly avant-garde, and act as a real point of difference in the Australian fragrance landscape.
