A solitary island nation marooned between the Atlantic and Arctic Oceans, Iceland is known for its extraordinary natural phenomena—including glacial lagoons, hot springs, and the transient, striking midnight sun. In an effort to capture the aromatic experience of the nation’s sublime landscapes, Icelandic outerwear company 66° North joined forces with Reykjavík-based perfume and home goods brand Fischersund—co-founded by Jónsi Birgisson, the vocalist of the Icelandic rock band Sigur Rós—to create a unisex fragrance, Útilykt, released earlier this fall.
