unisex
The tragic water spirit moves between rivers and seas, luring the man who has wronged her to his last sleep. Rusalka’s Embrace embodies the final breath before the depths close in: the slow sway of seaweed, a gasp of peppermint and pine, the frankincense waft of propolis, the clammy musk of drowned skin, and all the flowers he never lived to smell.
Stone Cap: 100% blue calcite
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
Think of the quiet after leaving a riverbank, with damp greenery still vivid in memory. Peppermint and pine give the composition a cool edge, while seaweed and skin-like musk bring it closer to the body—a contemplative presence with something slightly unsettling beneath its freshness.
How to wear
Try it in mild spring weather or the cooler days of autumn, when its aromatic greens and marine textures suit the temperature. Start with one spray on skin and assess before adding more; the extrait concentration calls for a measured approach. A restrained application keeps the emphasis on the interplay of cool botanicals, resin and musk.
Who it’s for
For those who prefer their aquatic fragrances green, saline and shadowed rather than bright or beach-like. Its combination of seaweed, coniferous notes, aromatic herbs and skin-like musk will appeal to tastes drawn toward botanical realism and unconventional marine compositions.

The nose
DL Jenkins is Pictura Fragrans’ founder and sole perfumer. His creative process begins with a written story, with fragrance materials chosen to translate its imagery into scent. In Rusalka’s Embrace, that narrative-led approach takes an aquatic composition into darker territory: submerged greenery, resin and the intimate suggestion of skin.
Pictura Fragrans’s story
Pictura Fragrans approaches perfume as sensory art, bringing storytelling into dialogue with memory, perception and science. Its concept of an “Olfactive Setting” offers an aromatic environment rather than a prescribed emotion, leaving the wearer’s own experiences to complete the picture.
Rusalka’s Embrace’s concept
Part II of Furies of the New Dawn, Rusalka’s Embrace imagines a wronged water spirit returning as an agent of judgment. Its fictional narrative follows the final breath before submersion, translating drifting seaweed, cold air, resin and skin into a marine fragrance shaped by guilt and retribution rather than seaside escape.
Extra info
The bottle has a cap made from 100% blue calcite. The fragrance is offered at 25% extrait concentration, and its unusual official note list includes lavender concrete, propolis, river notes, seafoam and skin.
