About the shop

Small on purpose.

One person, one small room in Edison, and five categories chosen by hand. Nothing arrives by the case; everything here was picked because Wanita would keep it herself.

The work

Folding, wrapping, writing the note

I am Wanita Duverglas. Wanora is my shop, and it is named after nothing more complicated than the idea of a place that feels like it belongs to you.

I started it because I kept finding things I wanted to share. A perfume that smelled like the inside of a warm house. A linen dress that got better every time I washed it. A candle heavy enough that you noticed it before you lit it. Buying them for myself was one thing; keeping them to myself felt like a waste.

So Wanora is a single small room with five corners in it: perfume, clothing, beauty products, accessories and home essentials. I choose each piece myself. If I would not keep it, it does not go on the shelf — which means the selection changes as I find things and sells out when it sells out.

You can buy anything here and have it sent to you. You can also text me, come by in Edison, and take your time. Honestly, that is my favorite version: the perfumes on your own skin, the linen in your hands, the two of us working out whether the thing is really right for you.

I answer my own messages, often the same day. If you are not sure what you are looking for yet, that is a perfectly good reason to reach out.
