A Signature Fragrance
oak moss
Oak moss is an extract from the lichen growing on oak trees, exuding a rich, velvety scent that's both earthy and slightly musty. This natural ingredient adds depth to perfumes, reminiscent of damp forests and moss-covered rocks, evoking a sense of nature's raw beauty.
Vetyver
Vetiver is an aromatic grass native to India but now cultivated widely in Haiti, Java, and Reunion. Its scent is richly woody, reminiscent of freshly turned soil and dry hay, with subtle hints of smokiness and sweetness. This earthy essence transforms compositions into complex narratives of nature.
Virginia Cedar
Virginia cedar, sourced from the eastern United States, carries a deep, resinous aroma with hints of sweetness and a subtle bitterness. This wood note is characterized by its dry, woody scent, which can evoke images of aged timber and forest floors underfoot.
