before you order
want to try me first?
every 50ml + 100ml order comes with a 1.5ml sample of Buckskin. wear the sample first before opening the full bottle. if it’s not for you, send the unopened bottle back for a refund. just let us know within 14 days of delivery that it's coming back (return shipping is on you).
our fragrances are truly unique, and we know the risk that comes with that.
vegan & cruelty free.
always.
are your fragrances "clean"
we don't believe in fear-based marketing dressed up as wellness. we care about safe formulations, with ingredients designed for the skin, and making fragrances that smell different.
are you stocked anywhere?
not yet- we are still getting our boots under the table. but there are things in the works. as soon as you can smell bloodknot in person, we'll let you know.
currently shipping australia-wide only.
we are coming for the rest of you soon. we just need to survive our first rodeo.
will Bloodknot's fragrances stain my clothes?
no fragrance can guarantee it won’t stain clothing. Bloodknot fragrances contain natural oils and raw materials that may mark delicate or light fabrics if sprayed too closely. we recommend spraying from about 20cm away — it settles onto the skin and clothes better that way anyway.
will Bloodknot get me compliments?
probably. keep your composure.
welcome to the feral side.
Good sign, you've scanned the card.
I'm Sammy, the founder of Bloodknot & Co.
Bloodknot was born from a love of the Australia we don't often see in fragrance.
The small towns, the dusty roads, the weatherboard pubs, the coastal sheds, the people with dirt under their fingernails & stories worth telling.
I've spent the last six years working in branding, product development and fragrance for some of Australia's biggest beauty brands. Bloodknot is the brand I've always wanted to see on the shelf — a little gritty, a little nostalgic and unapologetically Australian.
About Bloodknot
Our fragrances are Australian made, small-batch crafted by our incredible perfumer & hand filled by myself on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland.
Bloodknot's range is and always will be entirely genderless, anti-trend & anti-authority. We make fragrances for the feral, designed to feel intentionally distinctive and lived-in, rather than clean and luxurious.
Our Debut Fragrance
BUCKSKIN
Green smoke. Sun-worn leather.
Buckskin opens with green absinthe, basil leaves and crushed cardamom before settling into smoky resins, earthy woods and soft sueded leather.
It's comforting, familiar and slightly rugged.
The kind of scent people stop you to ask about (and we're not just saying that, in the first few weeks after launch, customers have already told us they've been asked what they're wearing, from strangers at train stations, to Uber drivers).

A note from our customers
Buckskin has quickly become a favourite among people who don't usually wear fragrance.
We've heard it described as:
"fresh and dirty at the same time."
"bold, sexy and moody."
"the smell of a favourite leather jacket."
"I feel like I've just oiled up a saddle. It's a beautiful, natural feeling."
"A summer night around the campfire with a whiskey on the rocks."
"Charleville races meets a night around a campfire meets a dimly lit cocktail bar."
Buckskin reminds me of home. But, one of the most unexpected joys of launching it has been seeing the memories it brings up for other people.
