The Terroir
Deep in the monsoon forests of Assam, only a fraction of Aquilaria trees ever form the dark, fragrant resin known as oud — a response to time, wound, and weather.

Mimosa Absolute — The Soft Side of the Sun
Some flowers fill a space with their scent; mimosa, however, seems to change the light of that space. Beneath the cheerful appearance of its golden-yellow flowers lies an unexpectedly calm, powdery, and deep character.
Mimosa Absolute initially evokes soft yellow flowers and fresh green branches. Then, a velvety powdery sensation, a moderate warmth of honey, and subtle textures reminiscent of sun-dried hay emerge. At its very bottom, a faint, dry, elegant shadow reminiscent of tea remains.
It is honeyed but not sugary. It is green but not sharp or grassy. It is powdery but does not turn into a cosmetic powder scent. All layers are connected with soft transitions, resulting in a warm, peaceful, and highly refined floral character.
Mimosa's small, spherical flowers appear light and ethereal from a distance. In its absolute form, this delicate image intensifies; in addition to the sunny side of the flower, its waxy, dry, and slightly earthy depth is also felt. Therefore, Mimosa Absolute is not just "a beautiful smelling yellow flower." It is a raw material that changes as you get closer, calms down on the skin, and slowly reveals itself.
Its name also carries a small botanical surprise: The flower we know as mimosa in perfumery comes not from the Mimosa genus, but from the Acacia dealbata tree, known for its slender grey-green leaves and fragrant yellow flower clusters.
In perfume compositions, it creates an elegant bridge between bright flowers and warm notes. It softens sharp edges, gives natural fullness to the floral structure, and subtly places a sunny warmth within the scent. It does not loudly announce its presence; however, its absence is immediately felt when removed.

Mimosa Absolute appeals more to those who appreciate details than to those looking for a showy floral scent. It first reveals its light, then its warmth after a little wait, and finally its quiet depth.
The Story
Some scents are made. This one was waited for — coaxed from resin-veined heartwood that took decades to ripen in silence.
Deep in the monsoon forests of Assam, only a fraction of Aquilaria trees ever form the dark, fragrant resin known as oud — a response to time, wound, and weather.
Harvested by hand from naturally infected heartwood, each fragment is graded by scent alone, the way it has been for generations.
Rested in glass for years beneath changing light, the oil softens and deepens into leather, honey and smoke.
“To wear oud is to carry a forest, a season, and a century on the skin.”
Questions
Apply a single drop to pulse points — wrist, neck, behind the ears. Concentrated oils bloom over minutes, so wear sparingly.
Pure oud oil is exceptionally long-lasting; expect 10–12 hours on skin and considerably longer on fabric.
