There is a moment just before the first sip, when the ice cracks, the glass sweats, and the evening officially begins. The Happy Hour collection by Poured New York is built for that moment. Five cocktail-inspired fragrances, each one precise, character-driven, and unapologetically spirited.
Blood orange and bitters. Briny olives and gin. Juniper needles and fresh cucumber. Earl Grey drifting through ivy and tart currant. Dark teak and cognac swirling through low light.
Hand-poured in Hudson, NY, these are candles for people who take their drinks, and their interiors, seriously.
THE COLLECTION
Negroni Nights
Blood orange and aromatic bitters open with a crisp, citrus-forward bite. Dry gin botanicals bring depth, while rosemary and sage finish with a refined herbaceous note. Bold, balanced, and unmistakably cocktail-forward.
Fragrance notes: Rosemary, Sage / Dry Gin / Blood Orange, Bitters
Dirty Girl Martini
Briny, unapologetic, celebratory. Salty olive brine opens with a bold savory hit, layered with crisp juniper gin and bright citrus rind. Fresh without sweetness, confident without excess.
Fragrance notes: Aperitif, Citrus Rind / Juniper Gin / Olives in Brine
Pimms & Needles
Cool cucumber and juniper needles form a clean, green base. Fresh strawberry and a lift of mint keep it bright and playful. The feeling of a sun-drenched afternoon on grass, glass in hand.
Fragrance notes: Strawberry, Mint / Cucumber / Juniper Needles
Feral Grey
Earl Grey tea forms an aromatic, refined backbone. Soft ivy winds through with botanical freshness, while tart currant and a touch of elderflower finish with crisp, subtle elegance. Our bestseller, for good reason.
Fragrance notes: Currant, Elderflower / Ivy / Earl Grey Tea
Teakeasy
Dark teak and oakwood form a polished, dry foundation, deepened by the warmth of cognac and a layer of earthy patchouli. Rich, atmospheric, and built for evenings that linger.
Fragrance notes: Patchouli / Cognac / Teak & Oakwood
