Christophe: SENSUAL AQUATIC SUNSHINE

Dream The dewy rainforest, the red abstract volcanic soil with a ray of sunshine

Scent At the heart of this composition are three varieties of vetiver, combined with soft sensual sandalwood notes and violet leaf extract. Uplifting marine notes and a touch of grapefruit and natural orange flower absolute add optimism and brightness when combined with the energy of the bergamot top. A ball of green freshness after the rain plays with natural green leaf extract from Violets grown in Egypt, as French sage and labdanum vapors of organic woodiness, wrap the fragrance with a transparent veil of molecular musks and moss.

Twist Vetiver is a grass growing on active or dormant volcano slopes in Java, La Reunion and in Haiti. It can grow as fast as 1-2 inches/ day (2.5 to 5cm/day). The profusions roots, a nightmare to dig out, are extracted. No good synthetic are available for reconstitutions. By using real natural Vetiver you help 100,000 small farmers around the world and their families.

Dave: Salty citrus and earthy, woody vetiver threaded by fresh cut greens to musk and wet moss. When the sun is low enough on the horizon to shine beneath the rain clouds pouring overhead you get a sunshower, and sometimes rainbows. “Vetyver Rain Skin” smells like that atmospheric condition.
