A well-curated wardrobe is all about versatility and timeless style. Whether you’re updating your closet or starting fresh.
Not every trail is meant to be easy.
And not every scent is meant to behave.
Devil’s Path is a bar that leans into the darker side of clean - a scent that opens smooth and inviting before drifting into something deeper, smokier and a little more dangerous.
Wild currant and lavender draw you in first. Fresh. Almost innocent.
Then the trail turns.
Black pepper, oud and resinous incense start to rise through the lather, creating a scent that’s warm, complex and just mischievous enough to keep you coming back.
Because nobody wants to smell like a saint.
Inspired by the Most Infamous Trail in the Catskills
The name Devil’s Path comes from one of the most demanding hikes in the Northeast, a rugged ridgeline route cutting through the northern Catskill Mountains of New York.
Stretching roughly 24 miles across six peaks, the trail climbs relentlessly over Indian Head, Twin, Sugarloaf, Plateau, Hunter and West Kill mountains.
It’s known for steep rock scrambles, punishing ascents and deep notches between peaks that pack nearly 9,000 feet of elevation change into a relatively short distance.
Early settlers supposedly believed the jagged ridgeline looked like something the devil himself carved into the mountains.
Anyone who’s climbed it knows why.
The terrain is rocky. The climbs are relentless. The reward is worth every step.
That same idea inspired this bar: something that starts smooth but quickly reveals depth and character.
