Description
A craft perfume solid centered around an exquisite French-grown Osmanthus flower oil, a rare floral with the unusual fragrance of ripe apricot and peach, bright citrus, tea leaves, and soft suede. The Osmanthus is layered with handmade enfleurages of hyacinth and native mock orange, a duo that draws out its cooler, greener notes while subtly warming the fruit. A trace of smoky-sweet Buddha Wood grounds the luminous fruit and flowers, giving the perfume depth and a faintly leathery finish.
How To Use
Rub a small amount of solid perfume on the wrist, behind the ear, or on any pulse point.

Osma Baume is built around an exquisite French-grown osmanthus flower, a blossom prized in perfumery for centuries. With an extraordinarily small perfume yield, it takes tonnes of petals to produce mere ounces of its precious oil. The scent is celebrated for its ability to read sensually without the weight of more opulent florals – osmanthus has luminous notes of apricot and peach, a dash of bright citrus, and an undercurrent of tea leaves and velvet suede.
To achieve the depth of Osma we've layered a handmade enfleurage fusion of hyacinth and mock orange over the osmanthus flower. Both are crafted through enfleurage, an ancient method of perfumery that can take months because the concentrated oils are achieved without any heat or chemical solvents.
