    Description

    Orange X Santal by Essential Parfums offers a radiant interplay between vibrant Italian bitter orange and creamy Australian sandalwood, transporting you to the sunny ambiance of the Riviera. Its aromatic basil and smoky French cypress add fresh herbal depth, while oakmoss grounds the scent with a subtly mossy chypre accord. The result is an uplifting, joyful fragrance with a distinctly modern citrus-woody profile, designed to be both energizing and comfortingly soft. With ethical, sustainable sourcing and a vegan formula, this scent delights in both performance and conscience. Perfumer: Natalie Gracia-Cetto

    About ESSENTIAL PARFUMS

    ESSENTIAL PARFUMS
    At Essential Parfums, we grew from a simple approach: giving perfumers carte blanche to create, with no constraints or limits. We partner with the best master and senior perfumers in the world, carefully sourcing the finest sustainable ingredients whenever possible, to be transformed into olfactory masterpieces. The result is a place to buy uniquely luxurious scents at an accessible price — all wrapped in eco-friendly packaging. We created this brand to share a true passion for the art of scent — therefore, our priority will always be the fragrance itself, rather than the trappings that surround it (like fancy bottles, advertising costs, and licensing fees that tend to muddle the essence of perfumery). As for the ingredients themselves, the costliness and complexity of working with naturals makes them a far rarer find in the fragrance world, but we know that they are well worth the effort to produce perfumes that do justice to each note within. Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication, which is why we focus on a precious handful of natural ingredients over a cacophony of synthetics. A signature scent should speak for itself.
