ของสะสม: Fueguia 1833

Fueguia 1833 is the Buenos Aires niche perfume house founded in 2010 by artist and self-taught perfumer Julian Bedel, now headquartered in Milan. The house calls its work “ethnobotanical perfumery”: every scent is built from South American botanicals — yerba mate, jacarandá, basil, osmanthus, palo santo — and released in numbered limited editions, so each bottle carries its own edition number and iteration mark on the glass. The name honours Fueguia Basket, a girl from Tierra del Fuego taken to England by Commander Robert FitzRoy and later disowned by her own people; she appears in Charles Darwin’s Voyage of the Beagle.
