Thin Wild Mercury Chelsea Staircase was released in 2023. Created by Cathleen Cardinali, it has notes of Earl Grey tea, lemon, canvas, sunflower and hot iron. Thin Wild Mercury Chelsea Staircase is an EDP Eau de Parfum.
From the Brand - "A bright and bold lemony Earl Grey tea billowing into fantasy sunflower accord painted upon a fresh stretched canvas, drying down to a ghostly antique wrought iron musk. Chelsea Staircase invites you to pick a story, play a character, or pass a ghost on your journey along its decorated walls and redolent hallways. Behind private doors a pen scratches paper, piano keys hammer, oil paint massages into stretched canvas, love is made, and lives are lived."
Fragrantica - "with a constant backdrop of hot iron and canvas, earl grey and lemon on the opening, and a sunflower dry down, every note listed has its time in the limelight. i absolutely love this fragrance, it wears beautifully imo if you're up for the challenge. it really paints a picture for you and is oddly nostalgic in a way i can't quite pinpoint. "
Fragrantica - "This is such a unique smelling fragrance, the canvas and iron are surprisingly there for me. I also really smell the sunflower, very very unique and interesting. I don’t think I would wear it however but it’s super cool to smell"
Fragrantcia - "As an artist, former-Manhattanite, and lover of Earl Grey & antiques, this is such a perfect, unique, and inspiring scent! It’s definitely a wild one though, and not a safe blind buy with the strong tea & metallic notes, but it was my favorite fragrance after purchasing Thin Wild Mercury’s NYC sample set. This will be my “day-to-night art event” go-to fragrance!"
