Description
This season’s enfleurage and floral wax solid is an ode to seasonal harvest – the honeyed spring softness of fresh, ambrosial mimosa flowers with just a hint of tender lilac, the late summer lightness of classic tuberose with its airy, velvety powder. The undercurrent runs deeper and begins to align with the crispness of fall, where round notes of toffee and treacle musk find a hint of winter’s licorice-like sweetness.
How To Use
Soften the perfume with a finger tip or use our Brindeau Dabber or Marchal Spoon to scoop a small amount of product onto the finger tip. Massage into the wrists, behind the ears, or on any pulse point.

Our Mimosa Blossom Perfume Solid is artisanally crafted in micro batches on a farm in upstate NY from bushels of fresh, organically grown flowers. Each hand blown pot of perfume is created with a naturally occurring mimosa floral wax blended with painstakingly handmade enfleurage solids of mimosa, tuberose, lilac, and jasmine flowers. The combination is an elegant seasonless scent in which the powdery, honeyed florals come forward but are finished with a deeper undercurrent of musk, ripe stone fruit, and a hint of sweet licorice.
When extracting oils from flowers for perfumery, a natural solid wax is left behind and is often discarded because it makes the essential oils cloudy. This precious exude is resilient and stable and often contains notes that are more true to the living profile of the blossom. A perfect base to create a perfume solid, we’ve blended this botanical treasure from the mimosa blossom with flower pommades that are handmade through the ancient method of enfleurage, extractions that happen with labor and time and not heat.
