Gush ☽•☾ natural perfume How I make my natural perfume Gush: Gush contains a trio of my orange blossom enfleurages: blood orange, navel orange, and bitter orange. I made an absolute from these enfleurages which I then incorporated into the perfume. Gush also features my in house extracts of hyraceum, aged 8 years, and rare enfleurage from my endangered Vanilla dilloniana flowers, as well as an absolute I made from its vanilla beans. It also has patchouli absolute from the patchouli I grow in my gardens. a l c h e m y ☽•☾Dirty vanilla deep in a patchouli snifter. Sugared orange blossom swirled with crimson blood orange and vetiver bitters. A juicy animalic tango with dry cognac. Styrax and indole hover above hyrax musk. Smoky, sweet, and intoxicating. n o t e s ☽•☾vanilla Madagascar and Vanilla dilloniana, patchouli, vetiver, cognac, hyraceum*, styrax resin, orange blossom, blood orange. *ethically sourced musk from the rock hyrax.
