Rambouillet Perfumed Hair Oil

IMMORTELLE: Immortelle has many names and just as many descriptions for its scent - we like to think it is evocative of caramel. Very tenacious and lingers on skin for hours.

AMBER: Deep, resinous, smoky, earthy, tarry - the list goes on. In the Rambouillet formula, it acts more earthy/smoky and grounds the rest of the botanicals.

ALLSPICE: Exhilarating and uplifting, allspice adds an aromatic kick to the heart accord that we personally find seductive and well-chosen.

With its proximity to Paris, the Château de Rambouillet (pronounced RAHM-boo-ee-yay) has been a royal, imperial, and presidential estate of leisure over the centuries. Its landscapes and gardens reflect the changes in seasons, as well as the change in hands of the domaine. From the presidential salle à manger, to Marie-Antoinette’s dairy, to the shell cottage, Rambouillet has a lot of varied historical treasures to discover. The grounds of Rambouillet are perhaps especially beautiful in autumn, and as such, we wanted to highlight the vivid autumnal colors, red ivies, and the sparkle of a forest changing seasons.

​

By placing ourselves in the gardens of Rambouillet, we designed a complex scent using plant-based essential oils that includes Spanish immortelle, Himalayan amber, and Jamaican allspice to capture the picturesque mirrored autumnal colors of the trees on the canals, the spirit of the château’s old traditions of hunting and trapping, and the crisp, spicy smells of ripening chestnuts, earthy truffles, and other French forest delicacies.

Come on a journey with us to the estate of Rambouillet as we chase through the changing trees to discover the allure of a French autumn.

All of our botanical perfumes, regardless of their format, are meticulously crafted exclusively from natural ingredients. As a result, they exhibit a distinct difference from the customary endurance of synthetic perfumes. Rather than filling the surrounding space with their aroma, our perfumes are designed to envelop and enhance the essence of the wearer and those in close proximity. Their longevity, spanning approximately 2 to 6 hours (sometimes more), is subject to an individual's unique body chemistry—although we commit ourselves to a minimum of 3 hours for a perfume formula, from the initial fragrance unveiling to the lingering traces of base notes on the skin.

In a departure from conventional perfumery, our creations are artfully constructed to undergo a metamorphosis over time. Unlike traditional fragrances that maintain a static olfactory profile, our perfumes evolve and transform, much like the gardens from which we’ve drawn inspiration. This transformative quality imparts a heightened sense of intrigue and complexity, offering the wearer an interesting journey of discovery with every application. What aromatic revelations will unfurl within seconds, minutes, and hours? We invite you to discover the captivating journey we have thoughtfully curated for your enjoyment.
