Dryland Wilds - New Mexico

Dryland Wilds creates desert perfumes from upcycled dryland plants harvested throughout New Mexico and the Southwest. Based in Albuquerque on unceded Tiwa land, they use sustainable methods like distillation, enfleurage, and tincturing to extract fragrances, often gathering plants at the harvest site to capture the freshest scents.

In addition to perfumes, Dryland Wilds handcrafts small-batch botanical soaps, balms, and oils, using organic oils and their signature desert fragrances, with no synthetic ingredients. 

Committed to sustainable wildcrafting, they prioritize harvesting invasive and upcycled plants for their fragrance materials. Much of their plant material is salvaged from sites being cleared for construction, road maintenance, or land management, helping restore ecosystems by reducing invasive species and protecting the watershed.

"We believe in connecting with the land, honoring its gifts, and crafting products that reflect the true essence of the desert while working to restore balance to the ecosystems we rely on." - Dryland Wilds
