Essential Parfums - Néroli Botanica - niche perfume
Néroli Botanica - the orange blossom, that white bud with a thousand subtle nuances, is at the heart of the creation and inspiration of master-perfumer Anne Flipo. Spicy and vibrant at opening, the fragrance burst with notes of curcuma leaf & ginger studded with a duo of pink and black peppers. Gloriously enhanced with neroli and Sambac jasmine, the orange blossom unleashes all its floral strength. Its solar and voluptuous facets blends with the green & velvety woody base notes of vetiver & sandalwood, both labelled with the sustainable label “For Life”.

About Anne Filipo
Anne Flipo grew up far from Grasse, in a wonderfully flowery garden in northern France. Hypersensitive to the world around her, insatiably curious and driven by an immense thirst for freedom, she chose perfumery to express the many facets of her creativity.
From l’Artisan Parfumeur to Jo Malone, from Rabanne (Lady Million, Invictus) to Lancôme (La Vie est Belle), via Yves Saint Laurent’s Libre, her career is marked by immense success.
Mesmerized by the scent of orange blossom during a stroll in a friend’s garden during her teenage years, Anne Flipo has never ceased to make this small white bud a common thread in her work.

The brand Essential Parfums was created by the founder Géraldine Archambault with the groundbreaking idea that it is possible to produce a high-quality and beautiful niche perfume at a decent price. Instead of investing heavily in advertising, the owner decided to invest more in the perfume formula.
The independent perfume house Essential Parfums represents nine niche fragrances, which are crafted with top quality, eco-friendly ingredients, yet available at an affordable price. They are luxurious and beautiful, yet non-conflicting. With their casually elegant style, they appeal to everyone, being neither provocative nor heavy; instead, they exude a very natural and airy aura.
Each fragrance proudly associates itself with highly renowned perfumers whose names you will find on the label and photograph on the box. These perfumers have utilized a wide range of natural materials, always mindful of environmental conservation, and resorting to synthetic components only where absolutely necessary.
