Return of the rogue<br />
New Zealand’s largest<br />
independent spirits company is<br />
bringing back one of its most<br />
loved and iconic brands just in<br />
time for summer. Rogue Society<br />
is produced by the Scapegrace<br />
Distilling Co in Central Otago<br />
and was the original name of the<br />
brand, before a name change was<br />
required to enter international<br />
markets. Rogue Society Liquor is<br />
distilled differently to Scapegrace<br />
and offers a completely different<br />
taste and flavour (and price<br />
point, at $55). The Signature Gin<br />
boasts up-front juniper alongside<br />
a unique botanical mix featuring<br />
local Gisborne grapefruit and<br />
Hawke’s Bay coriander, while<br />
the Signature Vodka provides a<br />
buttery, clean and velvet finish.<br />

Makes scents<br />
Abel, the 100% natural Wellington-based international fragrance house has entered<br />
the home fragrance category with three modern, plant-derived room sprays (from<br />
$100). Co-created by Abel founder Frances Shoemack and French perfumer Dr Fanny<br />
Grau, Frances says “Fanny and I have worked with the latest biotechnology and plant<br />
science to create a set of beautiful scents that are not just non-toxic, but will elevate<br />
any interior space.” An energising scent ritual, Scene 01 promises vibrant notes of green<br />
tea, yuzu and verbena, Scene 02 evokes luminous golden hour sunlight and brings<br />
outdoor wilderness inside with comforting notes of fig, marigold and cedarwood, and<br />
Scene <strong>03</strong> is the height of quiet luxury with lush layers of leather, tonka and vanilla.<br />
