These botanical gems come to life in our signature scent range, Elemi & Orris. Join us as we explore their rich heritage and the wellness they offer.
Elemi: The Resin of Renewal
Exploring Elemi's Origins
Elemi, scientifically known as Canarium luzonicum, is a resin harvested from the canarium tree native to the Philippines. Its name is derived from the Arabic word "al-luban," which means "milk."
Ancient Treasures
Elemi's history is as rich as its aroma. In ancient Egypt, it was used in the embalming process, and during medieval times, it graced European courts as a precious incense. It's been a symbol of renewal and purification for centuries.
Orris Root: The Iris's Hidden Gem
Unveiling Orris Root's Legacy
Orris root, derived from the rhizomes of the iris plant (Iris germanica or Iris pallida), is known for its sweet, violet-like scent. It has been valued since the 16th century for its unique fragrance and cosmetic properties.
A Fragrant Tradition
Orris root has been an esteemed ingredient in perfumery, cosmetics, and potpourri for centuries. Its subtle, powdery aroma adds a touch of sophistication and elegance to fragrances.
