1. No. 8 - Inspired by memories of a childhood growing up in a small village called Mosfellssveit just outside the city.

2. No. 23 - Their inaugural fragrance inspired by Old Reykjavik. Described as: Smoke in the air and tarred telephone poles, tall freshly mowed grass, and tobacco leaves. Dead flowers bow to the ground. In the breeze, the feminine fountain pine tickles the top of your skull. A beached whale is about to explode. It evokes nostalgia and heritage and is rooted in the perfumer's memories of working alongside his father on the big ships that frequented the old harbor. No. 23, captures the essence of oil-stained hands, a feeling of industry and salty ocean air mixed with the aroma of pipe tobacco. It features top notes of bergamot, black pepper and licorice; middle notes of cypress and Siberian fir; and base notes of birch tar, ambergris and patchouli.
3. No. 54 – This fragrance pays homage to the perfumer's father's workshop. Described as: Fresh coat of varnish on a wooden shed. Uprooted moss, wet dirt and vetiver roots. Burnt car tires on hot asphalt and dry patchouli. Heavy slow-drying oil painting. Icelandic alpine fir, footsteps in frozen grass and salt liquorice. Dirty leather, animalistic musk and ammonia.

4. No. 101 - Inspired by the unruly yet beautiful backyards of Reykjavik. It captures the essence of Iceland's short yet luminous summers, extended by the perpetual daylight. It evokes the aromas and sounds of urban summer life, echoing the heart of the city. And as quickly as summer arrives, it yields to the icy grip of winter. No. 101 features top notes of blackcurrant and chervil; middle notes of cumin, cypriol and lily; and base notes of limbwood, musk and vanilla.
