Known for very concentrated, mood-heavy compositions that often minimize conventional top notes and focus on resinous, woody, smoky and gourmand accords. He frequently builds dense, atmospheric scents inspired by themes like forests, autumn smoke and leather, using both naturals and synthetics, and is associated with dark, immersive perfumes such as Norne, Jeke, Ore and Pear + Olive.
Josh Lobb is a self-taught American perfumer and the founder of the Portland, Oregon-based niche brand Slumberhouse. He began creating perfumes experimentally with no formal training and initially sold his scents individually via Etsy, where Slumberhouse first took shape. Early on, the project functioned as a small collective with Lobb composing the fragrances while friends contributed visual art and other creative elements. Over time Slumberhouse became his solo brand. Lobb explicitly rejects the “all-natural” label, stating that he uses both synthetic and natural materials, and is known for dense, moody compositions such as Norne, Kiste, Ore, Sova and Pear + Olive.
