Subversive Scents

Since 2024

Subversive Scents by The Rolling Stones is a new fragrance collection from Nirvana Brands, created in collaboration with the legendary rock band. Designed to capture the rebellious spirit and iconic moments of The Rolling Stones' decades-long career, the collection features five unisex fragrances—each inspired by a pivotal song, album, or era. Created by master perfumers from IFF and Takasago, each scent tells a story. From the raw emotion of Wild Horses to the gritty sensuality of Sticky Fingers, the electric energy of Satisfaction, the urban chaos of Urban Jungle, and the dark intensity of Paint It Black, this collection redefines rock ‘n’ roll through scent. Using innovative headspace fragrance technology, the scents evoke unexpected notes like salty tears, worn leather, and rich tobacco—sensory echoes of life on the road, backstage moments, and the raw edge of musical history. Encased in sleek bottles with a turn-and-spray cap and adorned with the iconic tongue and lips logo designed by John Pasche, Subversive Scents is as visually arresting as it is olfactively daring.
