Elegance and intrigue comes from Turkish Rose Absolute. They then added sweet honey notes from Guaiac Wood and rare Madagascan Vanilla Bean. Mesmerising and mysterious, for lovers of strong, complex scents full of personality.
CADE (Juniperus oxycedrus)
ORIGIN: France & Northern Spain
EXTRACTION: Steam distillation
Cade is from an ancient species of juniper, grows at sea level on rocky sites across the Mediterranean. Through distillation of the rough bark, we gain this dark, aromatic tar oil with it’s strong campfire smoke smell. Ancient cultures believed it had the power to chase away evil spirits. In the Middle Ages in Europe, Cade used to be used to scent leather, after the tanning process that left the hides with unpleasant scents.
In this perfume two different Cade oils are used: a Cade Tar oil from an organic forest in the north of Spain, and a Cade Wood oil from France’s last traditional hand distiller of Cadewood.
