Here's a note from co-founder and scent designer, Ingrid, on the inspiration behind this new version.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOver the years, I kept having the inkling to redesign Mixed Feelings from scratch. Not to erase the original, but to deepen it. To give it more space. More contrast. And to reflect where I am today, not only as a scent designer, but as a person.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe inspiration has always been the idea of home. I grew up in a house where joy, discomfort, and sorrow lived alongside each other. I was a queer, mixed race girl living amidst the beauty and the tension. Where jasmine bloomed outside my bedroom window, the scent of steamed rice filled the kitchen, and I was navigating what it meant to be more than one thing.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eI remember the first moment I was othered before I even started kindergarten. I didn’t know exactly what was happening, but I knew it had to do with my identity. My mom and khun yai (grandmother) always made it known that my Thai heritage was a source of pride and power, so it was confusing to me why others didn’t feel the same way.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eI was full of Mixed Feelings, and still am, today. The house where I grew up was not often comfortable, so I learned to cherish my freedom. The outside world didn’t know how to accept me, so I learned to accept myself. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMixed Feelings represents so much more than I could ever capture with words, which is why I needed to express it through fragrance. The notes of jasmine and rose make it beautiful, the lychee adds sweet moments of joy, and my favorite part, the steamed rice, is like a soft blanket of comfort.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMy kun yai only knew a few words of English, but the one phrase she did know was “I love you.” That, is my constant. My home.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMay this scent find you when you, too, are searching for the feeling of home.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"THE NEW SAVANT","offers":[{"title":"7oz.

Sunny, verdant, and endlessly dreamy, this energizing fragrance centers one of Ingrid's favorite smells and an unusual note to find in candles: fresh dill. Combined with cucumber, juicy peaches and wet earth, Heatwave is balanced, unique and the perfect scent to burn for a little mood boost. In the studio, we affectionally call this our \"sleeper hit\" because at first glance people aren't sure what to expect, but when they smell this fragrance, they keep coming back for more – making it our \u003cstrong\u003etop bestseller of all-time.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"THE NEW SAVANT","offers":[{"title":"7oz.

The fragrance explores what being femme feels like and embodies a reclamation of femininity that isn’t measured by heteronormative standards.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eSimilar to the way she adorns her body, Ingrid chose every note in this scent intentionally. Peonies represent Ingrid’s past, often fraught relationship with femininity. Muddled raspberries, juniper and lemon give nod to the Clover Club – a drink once reserved for wealthy white men, that fell out of fashion when it was perceived as being feminine. Thai rose apple (\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eชมพู่ or \"\u003c\/span\u003echompoo\") incorporates her Southeast Asian heritage and represents the entwined nature of culture and identity. Crinkled book pages pay homage to mid-century lesbian pulp fiction, which was often written off as salacious fluff, but became a lifeline for millions of queer women. Finally, spicy chili peppers add an unexpected heat while illustrating the edges within femininity. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eSITC captures the tension of simultaneously being at odds and completely in love with who you are – something Ingrid has felt all her life. Together, these notes come together to create a scent that is glamorous, complex, provocative and multifaceted. It is never just one thing. In fact, when you look at these notes individually, they seem like they shouldn’t go together, but somehow, they just work.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"THE NEW SAVANT","offers":[{"title":"7oz.
