Discovery Set

Mood is terrain.

Each formula starts as an observation, a place or a shift in the air, and gets built out with woods, resins, florals and musks until it becomes somewhere to move through. The structures often follow unconventional paths, so what comes forward keeps changing.

Tamara Segarra blends all of them independently, from a studio in the San Jacinto mountains of Southern California, in small batches.

Strange Harvest is an independent fragrance house built around a single premise: scent as terrain, not decoration. Each composition starts from a specific place — dry, humid, sharp, dense — with materials introduced and adjusted until that space feels inhabited rather than illustrated. Nothing stays in a formula unless it shifts the atmosphere around it. Development happens entirely in-house, from raw material selection through to the finished object, treating perfume as a way to relocate the wearer rather than simply flatter them.

The house builds compositions the way a chaos garden grows: notes overlap and push against each other instead of resolving neatly, because tension, not arrangement, is where the real harmony sits. Its Extrait de Parfum line — Praying Manthus, Rose Relic, Hori Hori — blends natural and synthetic materials chosen for character over convention, hand-poured in small batches and left unfiltered. These aren't fragrances built for instant approval; they're built for people drawn to texture, specificity, and the slightly off-center.
