Description
Floralia Viridis is a nuanced green floral, built around spring jonquille of the daffodil family, a flower honeyed and softly narcotic, with facets of mimosa, hazelnut, tobacco, and blackcurrant. A special hydro-distilled, wild-grown North Indian vetiver brings clarity and lift, its depth threaded with subtle spice and the scent of red earth. The composition moves between flower and leaf – floral, yet distinctly green. As it warms on the skin, a soft, milky sweetness is balanced by herbaceous hay, an extraction of dried grasses from the French Alps, lavender absolute from the sun-drenched fields of Provence, and touched with watery violet and a trace of vanilla.
How To Use
Use a drop or two on the wrist, behind the ear, or on any pulse point.

A defining element in Floralia is a rose and leaf absolute from the storied rose fields of Bulgaria, created using the entirety of the plant – spent flowers, stalks, and leaves. This full-spectrum extraction captures the rose in its natural state, as a living shrub, green and breathing. It lends a softly wild, garden-grown quality to the composition, grounding the scent and keeping the fragrance vividly green.

Floralia I: Viridis
Like Ovid’s Metamorphoses, Floralia will evolve through the seasons as a series of atmospheric transformations. Each edition shifts with the changing world, electric green shoots pushing through dark earth, blossoms opening into light, sweetness deepening under the weight of the sun. The series represents the continuity of life, and begins with Floralia Viridis, a nuanced green floral, built around spring jonquille of the daffodil family.
