Fischersund No. 101 captures the ethereal, fresh green scent of the herbaceous backyards of Reykjavík. The short summers in Iceland are made longer by its 24 hours of light. Soaking up the 4:00 a.m. rays of radiant sunshine while the smells and sounds of the season breathe life into the heart of the city. And as soon as people fall in love with the warm weather, summer quickly fades to winter's frozen grasp. Weathered garden chairs stacked against the wallA flower pot filled with rain and cigarette buttssits on the uprooted pavement now swallowed by chervilEchoes of a nearby partyFingers digging up sorrel and dandelionsFreshly fallen snowOn a forgotten trampolineBlack currants fall from bare branches, one by one The launch is accompanied by Bakgarðar, a whimsical song composed by Jónsi, Sin Fang and Kjartan Holm that interprets the scent available via a QR code. Each bottle is hand-poured and hand-wrapped in a sustainable Fischersund No. 101 Bandana featuring imaginative illustrations inspired by the new scent drawn by the skillful hands of Fischersund sibling and co-founder, Ingibjörg Birgisdóttir. These signature bandanas have quickly become collectors' items donning necks, hair, and wrists of people near and far.
