What Slumberhouse is known for
Portland, Oregon niche perfume house created 2008 by self-taught perfumer Josh Lobb; Norne (2012) is a dense fir, pine and hemlock-forward fragrance inspired by black metal and northern woodlands.
Slumberhouse is an independent perfume house created in 2008 by Josh Lobb, a self-taught perfumer based in Portland, Oregon. The brand is known for dense, unconventional compositions with an emphasis on natural materials. Norne, launched in 2012, is one of its best-known scents - built around a trio of coniferous accords (fir, pine and hemlock) layered with spice, frankincense and moss, made largely from natural absolutes. Lobb has described the fragrance's inspiration as coming from his own appreciation of black metal, paired with the northern forest landscapes it evokes. It sells primarily direct via its own website rather than through wide retail distribution.
