Ancient perfumers used to distil invigorating scents which were breath-taking to the senses. The fragrant pure essences of fresh flowers were traditionally extracted as steam distilled floral waters and oils, whilst capturing their alluring notes. Read on to know more on how Forest Essentials has preserved this tradition of scent making…
What makes the Forest Essentials Intense Perfume Range so special?
Right from freshly plucked Nargis flowers from the Kashmiri hills, to hand-picked voluptuous Roses from the town of Kannauj and opulent Jasmine from Madurai in South India; Forest Essentials has carefully chosen three distinctive scents which reflect India. Every spritz evokes a vivid imagery of a garden filled with fragrant flowers in full bloom.
Age old making processes are essential to capture every herb’s efficacy, as they are harmonious with the vibratory energy of life. For our fragrances, flowers are hand-plucked and traditional deg or bhabhka techniques for the extraction of steam-distilled floral waters and essential oils are used, which are then stored in tiny glass bottles with cork lids. Unlike perfumes with chemically procured alcohol, our perfumes contain skin soothing, Pure Grain Alcohol which is a herb-enriched preparation, fermented according to ancient Ayurvedic texts.
Choose and combine to make a fragrance which is uniquely yours…
The art of combining and layering complementing fragrances lends a combination of rich scents to the skin with sensuous, floral and woody notes. While the signature collection of Intense Perfumes by Forest Essentials features single note flowers, when combined with our range of body care essentials, an exceptionally lasting fragrance is achieved – a scent which is uniquely, yours. These highly effective natural products leave a lingering fragrance, whilst adding a harmonious effect on the senses.
While you can layer the fragrance with products from the same collection, you can also build your own by combining scents. Combine the delicate, sensuous and soft notes of Nargis with deeply alluring and warm notes of Mashobra Honey & Vanilla, to unravel a delicious, captivating fragrance. Or, indulge yourself in an exotic fragrance by combining the refreshing notes of Desi Gulab with musky overtones of Oudh & Green Tea. Or, simply experience the irresistible notes of Madurai Jasmine combined with the iconic Soundarya collection to uplift your senses with an evocative combination of effervescent and ethereal scents…
