Sourced from evergreen *Aquilaria agallocha* trees in Trat, eastern Thailand, our agarwood is  rich and complex, with deep, woody, leathery base notes. An ancient and sacred material, so prized that it was once referred to as ‘black gold’, this fragrant wood is formed when a protective resin seeps into the tree’s heartwood to safeguard it from threat.

Agarwood, or oud, as it's known in Arabic, has a deep cultural history that spans fourteen centuries. Sourced from evergreen Aquilaria agallocha trees in Trat, eastern Thailand, ours is rich, refined and complex, with deep and woody, leathery base notes. An ancient and sacred material so prized by royalty and religious leaders that it was referred to as ‘black gold’, agarwood is created when a protective resin seeps into the tree’s heartwood to safeguard it from threat. Combined with pure, mineral-rich water sourced and distilled from an aquifer 60 metres underground, our agarwood is extracted through steam distillation of the soaked and fermented agarwood bark.

We harvest Douglas fir needles in Canada and transport them to France, where we extract the absolute. The branches are cut in the morning, for as they warm up during the day they release more of their precious oil. The note is very long-lasting, balsamic and fresh.

Grown in Northeastern Madagascar, our clove trees are lush with reddish brown buds which burst into many-headed white flowers. It is from these buds that our clove oil is extracted - using a water distillation process. 


The clove tree is a tropical evergreen, lush with green leaves and reddish-brown buds which burst into many-headed white flowers. The word clove comes from Latin _clavus_, meaning nail, for the bud’s shape. It is this bud from which our fragrant clove oil is extracted, using a water distillation process. Grown in Northeastern Madagascar, the buds are removed in clusters from the tree’s branches, then hand-picked and sun-dried until they turn brown. Alongside nutmeg, black pepper, and mace, cloves were once one of the most valuable commodities in the world, prized as much for their exotic mystique as their warm, spicy aroma.

Found in temperate, mountainous forests in the northern hemisphere, oakmoss is a branching lichen that grows on the branches and trunks of the oak tree. Ours is foraged from wild oaks in Samokov, Macedonia, before being transported to Grasse, where the oil is extracted by a family-run distillery.


Oakmoss, despite its name, is not a moss but a branching lichen, varying in colour from very pale to dark olives and ambers when wet. It can be found in temperate, mountainous forests throughout the northern hemisphere, growing on the branches and trunks of deciduous trees and conifers, but most especially on the oak. Its presence is a sign of unpolluted air. Our oakmoss is foraged from the trunks and branches of wild growing oak trees in the hills of Samokov, Macedonia, and transported to Grasse, where the oil is extracted by a family-run distillery.
