Life on the Mountain Cologne - Four Seasons of the Forest in One Boxed Set

Seasons change on the mountain. From the damp earth of Fall, to the muted hush of Winter, to the boisterous growth of Spring, to the hot breath of Summer, each season brings a beautiful scent experience celebrating the cycles of life.

This four-cologne set includes the scents of the seasons, with beautiful label artwork done by artist Kathryn Hackney.

Each seasonal scent represents the scent of a pine forest during that season. They're designed to evoke the feeling of the seasons through the actual scent of these seasons (no "artistic liberties" were taken in the name of making our scents more like traditional colognes).

"Autumn on the Mountain"

The forest has been waiting for this moment: When the summer is coming to an end, and the fall begins… the fall of rain soaking into the dry earth, the roots nourished, drenched, softened.

It smells damp, or like a long drink of water after a dry spell, absorbed through the skin of the earth, which is now wet and muddy and softened where it was hard.

The celebration of rain begins!

"Winter on the Mountain"

The forest around you is quietly contemplating, dreaming the dreams of forests, the dreams of Spring, the promise that Spring will come again after the long months of winter, quietly waiting in this stillness.

The forest smells like peaceful slumber.

It is now time to be indoors. It is now time to drink spiced ciders and mulled wine in the comfort and protection of home.

"Spring on the Mountain"

Raining at last. Such a relief, such joy. Pine tips, extending out as fast as possible, bark stretching, breaking, and growing. The earth covered in decay in the fall is now covered in grass, shoots of new life, of seeds that have fallen and have waited until this rainy day to start their brave venture into the sunlight.

They grow because they have to. And it’s that time.

Let's get growing!

"Summer on the Mountain"

A hot breath blows through the valley. The grass whispers how hot it is, “But it is a dry heat,” sighs the grass. The trees agree, their needles dry, hoping for no spark because it is a dry heat.

People under the trees look up at the trees and say, “Wow, that is tall.” And the trees look down and say, “Wow, you are small, and how do you move like that?” beheld in mutual wonder.

About Outlaw Cologne

There aren’t a lot of companies doing what we’re doing because (let’s be honest) not everyone wants to smell like campfire or leather. But we think real-life scents are the best scents around.

As we often say, “We’d rather be one person’s shot of whiskey than everyone’s cup of tea.”

We also know our colognes aren't the cheapest on the market, but you don’t want to smell like every Tom, Dick, and Mary anyway. Our scents aren’t made by massive brands like Tom Ford or Calvin Klein or created by huge fragrance houses.

We're just a little band of Outlaws living our (and hopefully YOUR) dreams in the foothills of the Sierra Mountains in lovely Sparks, Nevada.

Our cologne is made in small batches, individually (by hand), by people who love their jobs and want you to be happy.

We use a combination of natural and synthetic fragrances to bring the most interesting scents to you in the most sustainable, ethical, and safest way possible.
