Girl of the Year

Girl of the Year by Thin Wild Mercury is a Leather fragrance for women. Girl of the Year was launched in 2023. The nose behind this fragrance is Cathleen Cardinali. Top notes are Lipstick and Incense; middle notes are Leather and Smoke; base notes are Orris Root, Fur and Sandalwood. A dark and feminine combination of burning incense and buttery lipstick permeating through a smoker’s leather jacket drying down to a creamy, warm sandalwood and musky, powdery orris root.Girl of the Year is an exploration into the private enclaves of the woman, off film, away from parties, protected from the flash of the camera. It is the quiet moments between calls and engagements, the space reserved for nestling into your memories. Artifacts of a life being lived populate your space, untidy and endearing: the leather jacket left behind by a lover lazily draped on the sofa, your vanity clumsy with perfumes and jewelry, the littered ashtray on your windowsill. Every article of clothing and tube of lipstick a talisman of self expression and protection becomes a souvenir of the moment, iconic of an era. From the solitude of your dressing table, you stare at your reflection with no one else to see. The phone rings.
