Hidden sandalwood

Sherwood. A botanical palace in which each root hides a tender shoot, each variety of tree surprises by its skin-like bark. Smooth and sweet like orange blossom absolute. Like rose. Birds hold court in their nests, peeping and cheeping on about Robin. The treetops swap secrets of pink pepper and carrot seed oil. Only the cedar knows them. Where is the coveted treasure hidden?

Suddenly an arrow flies down the middle of a path. It skims past the birch and leaves a pervading trail of sandalwood oil that slips between the leaves, hugs the trunks, takes advantage of every ounce of quivering air to make its presence known. It points to the destination, leads the way to a fragrance: as generously discreet, as gloriously alive as its forest host.

A sandalwood cream, with a deep and mellow woody signature enhanced by upcycled oakwood. Creamy woods coloured in red are faceted with sparkling blackcurrant buds and a bouquet of warm spice, including pink pepper.

Notes: blackcurrant bud absolute, pink pepper extraction, carrot seed oil, Damascena rose, orange flower absolute, oakwood, sandalwood oil, Cashmeran

About the flacon: The plate of Sherwood is inspired by the Major Oak from Sherwood forest and a wink to Robin Hood’s legendary arrows.
