The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2018 by DS&Durga, a niche perfume house founded in NYC in 2007, Hungry Like the Wolf is a Leather fragrance that straddles the line between fresh and smoky. Perfumer David Seth Moltz crafts an aromatic opening with notes of spicy freshness that quickly give way to a deeper base of woody and powdery scents. The composition is grounded by leather, creating a sense of both warmth and restraint. This fragrance embodies the brand's commitment to blending global essences into distinctive olfactory experiences.

How to wear it

Apply two sprays to each wrist for a balanced blend. The fresh spicy notes dissipate within an hour, so it's best to reapply after lunch if you want the full effect throughout the day. This fragrance reads better close to skin than from across the room.
