The Scent Experience

The earthy, sweet vibration of this purifying libation creates peace of mind and draws in deep inhalations of soul satisfying summer scents. A spritz of this heavenly, herbaceous aroma is like a warm wind that ensorcels skin and spirit with a vesper of Vanilla, a tease of ceremonial Tobacco that wafts in a breeze buoyed by sun-soaked meadows of Sweet Grass and sweet Marjoram caressing these senses with coumarinic notes of mown Hay all here to uplift and grace us with another day to pray and play.

  • Sweet Vernal Grass - Anthoxanthum odoratum

This long-lasting aroma, also known as vanilla-grass, is one of the most sought-after scents in perfumery, with the scent of sweet summer meadows emanating with coumarinic notes of clover and cut grass. Similar in scent and related to the sacred Sweetgrass (Hierochlo ) that gets braided for burning in North America, Sweet Vernal Grass is distilled from the grassy, merry meadows of Mediterranean France, where the essence is known as Flouve. This aroma aerates the senses with herbaceous hay notes dappled in honeyed-hints of Vanilla that positively entice the spirit to come out and play. Steffen Arctander s plenary work, Perfume and Flavor Materials of Natural Origin, explains why Flouve (Sweet Vernal Grass) is a paragon of the perfumer s palette: unquestionably one of the most interesting natural perfume ingredients which have come up in recent decades having a very sweet, herbaceous, tobacco-like and coumarinic odor. The odor is so rich and so complex that one can keep finding notes in it the overall fragrance is sweet, root-like, somewhat mossy-herbaceous like under-forest and meadows, exceptional tenacity and high penetrating power.

  • Hay - Hierochloe alpina

The countrified aroma of a sweet summer day entwined with tranquil top notes that emanate a happy, honeyed balsamic scent. Making Hay while the sun shines, our distiller dries the fragrant Hay in the sun for months until it is ready to exude its aromatic oil. The smooth, comforting aroma of this agrarian absolute adds an enduring, alluring heart-note to this fragrant foliaged foug re.

  • Green Lemon - Citrus limon

Gorgeous Green Lemon is the aromatic love child of Bergamot and Lemon Verbena and fills the air with a sunny aroma appreciated by all. This distinguished distillation of bright lemony zestiness enchants our Sweetgrass cologne with top notes of sipping aperitifs in the Sicilian sunshine.

  • Balsam Fir Absolute - Abies balsamea

Festive and fragrantly fruity, Balsam Fir Absolute captures the balsamic aroma of fresh coniferous needles. Thoreau once described the aroma of the fresh shoots of the Balsam Fir tree as remarkably emitting the fragrance of strawberries, and it is this surprising strawberry-scent that the absolute attains, along with a scintilla of spice and a vesper of camphor. Scent-sniffer extraordinaire, Steffen Arctander, found that Balsam Fir Absolute s odor power is easily underestimated, and the apparent suave sweetness has a tremendous penetration in most fragrances. Obviously, this material is particularly useful in Pine and Spruce fragrances, Christmas tree odours but the real pleasure of such a material is primarily obtained when it is used in the more unusual places, in chypre, foug re, muguet cologne bases.

  • Sweet Marjoram - Origanum marjorana

The mellow-meadow aroma of Marjoram is an ancient ally to purify body, mind, and spirit. The quiet, warm yet penetrating aroma of this mighty herb is a major melter of muscles, a mellower of minds, and a mender of hearts.
