Targhee Forest is the morning sun warming tall pine trees, as their resinous, sweet, and musk-like fragrance begins to fill the air. The aroma of the moist forest soil mingles with the scent of the silvery carpet of sagebrush covering the nearby hills. Venturing deeper into this forest, the fragrance of rich, woody cedar and lush oakmoss is grounding, soothing, and uplifting. “As an artisan perfumer and a dad of two rambunctious boys, I spend most of my day indoors and do not have time to think. I sometimes feel isolated once I go into my studio in the wee hours of the night. When it all seems too much, I head to Caribou-Targhee National Forest, a short drive from my house. I leave stress behind and spend time with nature. The silence of the forest cuts me off from the commotion at home as if the commotion had never begun. This is a primal silence that centres me. ” - Manuel Cross (Owner & Perfumer)

A woody aromatic forest with fresh spice, conifer, moss and earth.

Editor's Notes

Targhee Forest is a botanical concentrate – a heavenly assemblage of wild mountain and forest ingredients mixed with air and aether. It is the scent of berries, foliage, pine needles, shrubs, moss, and woods, worked into a familiar chypric structure of patchouli, amber, and musk. Unlike Rogue’s earlier fragrances that turn to the forest, Targhee is without shade nor shadow, but basks its material in sunlight. It is the accumulation of a scented trail, embracing the wilderness without excessively taming it – and in this regard respects its inspiration, leaving it all untouched. It is rare earth and crisp infinite sky, mediated by an air that gathers and disseminates scent.

Targhee wears like a dry amber masculine in the same vein as Equipage (Hermes 1970) and Heritage (Guerlain 1992). It is richly aromatic and spicy, with a prominent line of wood and resin working through the fragrance. Its blending its impeccable and smooth, maximal in many respects but not excessive. Quiet luxury.
