The Thousands

Since 1993, Kleins Perfumery has been wafting onto the Melbourne streets, halting passersby with the heady aroma of niche fragrances from perfume houses all around the world. Now it’s time for the rest of the country to take a wiff. Mr Will and his Kleinettes have transported this aesthetic onto the internet, replete with a Yoda-esque blog delivering timely lifestyle advice.

With the exception of the fragrance experience itself (until someone invents an online scratch and sniff, you’re going to have to know your end notes), the online store has all the fine wares of its hard-copy Melbourne counterpart, including Australian fragrances from Jurlique, Aesop and Glasshouse, boutique editions from Diptyque, Carthusia, and Costume National, and a variety of other delightful oddities such as french milled soaps and books on making jam.

Purchases come beautifully wrapped and delivered directly to your door, making this a stress-free alternative to doing your Christmas shopping in the new year.
