Tuberose Solifore Solid Perfume, Handmade In California

In a way, I’ve quietly grown up with these flower butters and as the artistic need arises in any perfumer, I’ve tweaked the formulas over the years. This last reformulation is likely my last, having done almost everything with the compositions I possibly could to elevate the perfume. Last summer, while in the thick of rugosa rose distillation heaven, it occurred to me that there was one upgrade left. I decided to macerate roses in the jojoba oil portion of the rose flower butter. I knew all three butters were going to need extra time due to flower seasonality but I felt this was a final revision to truly bring this line to a level of perfume legacy in my work.

Last fall was the second year I worked with my tuberose flower farmer. She didn’t much understand my work until I brought her a bottle of tuberose hydrosol with an explanation of use. Not long after, I received a personal invite to her flower farm, something she doesn’t offer the public. I was given private access to all the tuberose flowers she had available before they were taken to the farmer’s market. I spent six weeks visiting her farm, buying enough to both distill and macerate in jojoba oil. This, like the jasmine maceration, has become its own product yet is a component of the flower butter.

Organic Tuberose Flower Butter is a handmade natural perfume, my ode to the Louis XIV garden at Versailles. The butter contains the best tuberose absolute, concrete and floral wax in our apothecary as perfumers did for thousands of years.  The butter is very soft without the use of beeswax and potent too; requiring the slightest smear on wrists and pulse points to experience tuberose fields plus all the craft I’ve put into making this butter. All the history too.

This is a beeswax free soliflore natural perfume with absolutely no synthetics or bio identical essential oils.

Size: 15 ml glass insert jar.
