The Wardian Case Spray (fern terrarium)

The Wardian Case — Room & Body Spray

The Wardian Case is fresh, green, and strange in the most Victorian way: a glass box of damp ferns, obsession, and botanical theft.

Perfect paired with The Sad Hour to create something greener, fresher, and mournfully alive. The Wardian Case is the one to mist over the whole room like you’re preserving your own little haunted greenhouse.

A curious object, the Wardian case. For a time, the Victorians became obsessed with gathering ferns from communal woods—as well as from distant, exotic lands. Tall as a man, the glass Wardian cases were both decorative and protective, separating one's most treasured specimens from the choking pollution of the city's factories. Mist the air with this fern-based aroma, and you may find—as the Victorians once did—a brief respite from the disappointments of modernity.

Featured notes: fresh wet ferns

If you love The Sad Hour, this is the obvious companion. The Sad Hour brings figs, ferns, moss, salty tears, and lily; The Wardian Case sharpens the green, rain-wet fern side until the whole thing feels like opening a tiny Victorian terrarium.
