D.S. & Durga is a Brooklyn-based indie fragrance house known for unconventional scent design and a focus on botanical ingredients. Founded by Durga McBroom and David Moltz, the brand has built a reputation for fragrances that feel more like olfactory art projects than commercial perfumes.

Bistro Waters opens with bright coriander and pear, trimmed with lime blossom for a crisp, herbaceous top. The heart shifts toward green pepper and mandarin orange, adding gentle spice and citrus depth without sweetness. Basil, moss, and nutmeg anchor the composition in earthy, aromatic territory. The fragrance stays firmly in green and aromatic territory, balanced between fresh and slightly peppery throughout, with a mineral-herbaceous quality that keeps it feeling grounded and intentional rather than effusive.

This works best for someone who appreciates herbal and aromatic fragrances over gourmand or floral directions, and it suits cool to warm seasons equally. It's a daytime fragrance that reads as cerebral and understated, ideal for anyone drawn to botanical complexity. The Tactician, The Aristocrat, and The Homesteader share similar green-aromatic sensibilities.

Fragrance Notesbrand verified
Top · 0–30 min
Coriander
Coriander
Warm, spicy, and faintly citrusy, coriander seed smells quite different from the green herb, with a dry, woody warmth and a slight floral quality. It adds a spiced, slightly exotic character to masculine fragrances without the sharpness of pepper or the sweetness of vanilla. A supporting spice note that adds complexity.
Pear
Pear
Gentle, watery, and slightly floral, pear is one of fragrance's most delicate fruit notes, with a clean sweetness that is closer to flowers than to heavy tropical fruits. It adds a soft, luminous freshness to compositions and pairs naturally with rose, iris, and light musks. Often the note that makes a fragrance feel effortlessly elegant.
Lime Blossom

Basil
Basil
Sweet, spicy, and vividly herbal, basil has a green freshness with slightly anise-like and peppery facets that make it more complex than most culinary herbs. In perfumery it adds a lively, Mediterranean quality and pairs beautifully with citrus and woody notes. An underused note that rewards those who seek it out.
Moss
Moss
Damp, green, and slightly bitter with a cool, shadowy quality, moss is nature's version of depth in perfumery. Oakmoss and tree moss both add a forest-floor complexity that anchors compositions in something real. Essential to classic chypre fragrances and the inspiration for countless green woody accords.
Nutmeg
Nutmeg
Warm, woody, and softly spiced with a slight sweetness that makes it gentler than clove or pepper. Nutmeg adds a quiet, autumnal warmth to fragrances without sharpness. It blends seamlessly into woody and oriental bases, acting more as a supporting character than a lead note.
