SYNOPSIS: When Stina, a burgeoning writer, decamps to her mother’s summer house for the winter to write a book, her trip overlaps for one day (and one steamy night) with a brawny fisherman named Ulv. While she struggles to gain traction with her novel, her fixation on the mysterious seafarer results in countless unsent letters, the contents of which chronicle a spiraling psyche full of lust and longing. Set on the desolate west coast of Denmark during the tourist off-season, Every Storm a Serenade is a meditative masterwork that will lull you with its well-designed sentences and intimate tone.

HOW IT WEARS
A tsunami of sea mist, calone and Danish spruce set off the wear of Every Storm a Serenade. As it develops, the sharp spice of vetiver and green eucalyptus come out, which then settle onto a sea bed of salty-sweet ambergris, creating an almost musky dry down. This scent has excellent longevity and will last 6-8 hours on the skin.
LORE LOVES
After a storm has ravaged both ship and crew, voyagers arrive to a new land, lured by a lush spruce forest atop ragged cliffs. Sea mist and moist foggy air swirl around both forest and cliffs, providing cover for the creatures and elementals that exist in the surrounds. Don’t be put off by perceptions of ambergris, this is an everyday scent for those with discriminating taste.
