Jasmin de Grasse
“Sophisticated Sensuality” – Candle
Description
Known as The Queen of Flowers, the microclimate of Grasse gives its Jasmine a distinctive sophistication that sets it apart from any other variant. Sensual, fruity and narcotic, these little star-shaped blossoms must be picked at dawn, as the amount of oil they contain diminishes with each passing moment as the sun rises. It takes around five million flowers to produce just one kilo of oil, making it an incredibly prestigious perfumery ingredient. Brought into all its glory in this luxurious home fragrance, the Jasmine flower is enhanced by juicy Bergamot and Peach whilst Orange Blossom furthers its indolent sensuality, and notes of Tea and Woods evoke the beauty of mother earth.
