About Me
Greetings! My name is Wyatt, and I am the small, bearded man behind Felis Umbra Parfums.Β
Scent has always been a love of mine, ever since I can remember. My love of scent was introduced to me, and partially curated by, my grandmother and her mother. Some of my very first memories are tied to scents, including time spent with my grandmother and great-grandmother in their flower gardens, going to greenhouses, baking, candle shopping, among countless other fragrant memories with them.
Through Felis Umbra, I hope to touch on some of those memories for you all as well. Or, conversely, inspire the creation of new memories with my fragrances.Β
Throughout my adult life, I have always been an avid fragrance collector. However, I discovered that I love creating fragrances just as much as I enjoy smelling them. Throughout the last few years I worked with several small-batch brands to release collaboration scents, and with each release my love and appreciation of the craft grew. Bringing new, expressive scent profiles to the masses brings me insurmountable joy.
Most of my formulations are at least 30% concentration (otherwise known as Extrait de Parfum concentration), with few exceptions. The result of this extremely high oil concentration is dense, powerful longevity on skin at the cost of softer projection. This results in a fragrant aura with a longevity of at least 10+ hours.Β
All fragrances are formulated using 200 proof SDA40 perfumers alcohol, perfumery-grade olfactory materials, resinoids and aromachemicals, as well as skin-safe fragrance oils.Β Β
None of my fragrances are tested on animals. My cats definitely would not approve of this.
All formulations are sulfate free, paraben free, phthalate free, palm oil free, and made with no added colors.
For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. Discontinue use if irritation occurs. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
Each bottle is hand poured in Central PA.Β
I thoroughly test each blend in-house to ensure quality. All of my fragrances are made in small batches to ensure consistency in each batch.Β
