Waterparks’ Awsten Knight announced that he’ll be opening the first-ever in-person HII DEF store in Los Angeles, California. The store will be open on June 13th through 15th to celebrate the release of Knight’s very first fragrance, Orange Frost.
The online-exclusive brand, founded and created by Knight, first launched in 2021 and has gone on to feature an eclectic collection of items in its limited edition drops, including t-shirts, jackets, and even a welcome mat, which sell out almost immediately. Now on its fourth season, HII DEF has become a massively successful project that allows Knight to experiment creatively outside of music and explore his passion for creating high-quality fashion.
After two years of production and sampling, Knight announced on May 28th that the first HII DEF fragrance would be available on the site alongside additional bundled items. Orange Frost’s scent is described with top notes of orange, tea, and cypress, heart notes of iris, heliotrope, and spun sugar, and base notes of white amber, cedar, and musk. Knight also shared that he had a total of 10 different versions of the fragrance while on Waterparks’ most recent SNEAKING OUT OF HEAVEN Tour and would take note of the compliments he’d receive on each at meet-and-greets to guide the sampling process.
The HII DEF pop-up will have Orange Frost available for purchase alongside exclusive clothing items that will only be available in-store. Knight joked that fans can expect him to try to figure out how a cash register works and promises it’ll be fun to watch. An RSVP form for entry to the event can be found on the brand’s website here.
