The Inspiration
My garden in summer contains a myriad of scents. It contains the scent of the freshly-pulled carrots, the scent of the fresh-cut grass, and the scent of the forest which surrounds me. Egyptian Geranium is technically a floral note, but is unlike many others in that it is sharp and crisp. I used Turkish Galbanum because fresh-cut grass smells nearly identical with its green and bitter facets. Virginian Cedarwood is akin to the conifer trees that surrounded my childhood home, but is smoother and more rounded. I chose Lily of the Valley for the sweet and creamy tones it adds to N° 1.
The Composition
Vegetal and bitter facets of Egyptian Geranium and Turkish Galbanum produce a sharp contrast between smooth tones of Virginian Cedarwood and Lily of the Valley.
