Description
Each year we make a small batch of perfume that is created from lush wildflowers growing throughout the Susquehanna Valley in New York. The blossoms come from a place where wildflowers grow freely, uncultivated and undisturbed, tangled together across the sun-drenched, untilled landscape. This year, we did something a little bit different and for the first time made a perfume solid with our masses of spring flowers. The perfume is composed of local blooms – wild cranesbill, goldenrod, dame’s rocket, musk mallow, milkweed, bush honeysuckle, and wild lilac. The scent of untamed flowers is unique and unruly, with a gentle floral sweetness, a whisper of vanilla, and a grounding musk that lingers softly on the skin.
How To Use
Massage into pulse points as a light and all natural solid perfume.

Our wildflower perfume is crafted just once a year, with each element extracted using the ancient art of enfleurage – a meticulous, time-honored method that captures the pure essence of each blossom without heat or solvents. Because we harvest only what nature offers each year and avoid disturbing wild populations, every milliliter of our wildflower is as rare as it is precious.
The perfume is created with wildflowers from the storied Susquehanna Valley, a composition of truly local blooms – wild cranesbill, tall goldenrod, dame’s rocket, musk mallow, milkweed, bush honeysuckle, and wild lilac.
