Perfumer Ineke Ruhland introduces the "Scent Library”, which contains generous samples of all five fragrances in the Floral Curiosities fragrance collection.
Five flowers with distinct personalities can be discovered in this “faux book”. Each flower’s unique character is expressed through the artistically rendered packaging, which uses fine art and calligraphy in a vintage book design.
The five fragrances in the Floral Curiosities collection are:
Angel’s Trumpet (Brugmansia) Fresh and Opulent- Angel’s Trumpet opens with refreshing notes of honeydew melon, Seville orange and leafy greens. Angel Trumpet’s rich floralcy is then warmed by cinnamon leaf and allspice and supported by Virginia cedar and white musk.
Briar Rose (Rosa Rubiginosa) Fruity and Floral-A pretty rose-violet accord given big character with supporting notes of black raspberry, green apple, warm spices, patchouli, cacao and vanilla.
Poet’s Jasmine (Jasminum officinale) Citrus and Herbal -A fragrance inspired by Poet’s Jasmine tea, replete with slices of citrus fruit. Added points of interest include star anise, rosemary, absinthe, frankincense, cardamom, hinoki wood and guaiac wood.
Scarlet Larkspur (Delphinium cardinale) Floral Oriental-A bright fruity opening of blood orange, red currant and morello cherry deepens over time with notes of claret wine, nutmeg, saffron, amyris wood, tonka bean and vanilla.
Sweet William (Dianthus barbatus) Woody and Sweet -A peach schnaps note introduces the spicy Sweet William floral accord, and is further warmed with cinnamon, clove and cumin essential oils. The dominant wood notes are a blend of cedarwood, sandalwood and patchouli, softened with Bourbon vanilla.
Inside each box are “library cards” describing the fragrances.
