ROSE GERANIUM
Geranium extract has a definite rose scent. But it also has a citrussy, slightly minty freshness.
We are very proud that it was one of the first perfume crops we grew and experts gave it 10 out of 10 from the first harvest.
PERFUME A Tribute To Edith
MONTMARTRE, PARIS
In creating A Tribute to Edith, the rose scent of the Geranium led us to Montmartre in Paris. Nightlife in the 1920s with Edit Piaf singing about enjoying life through rose glasses.
What we know as “geranium” in perfumery, is in fact one of over 200 varieties of pelargonium, Pelargonium Graveolens or rose-scented geranium.
Originating from South Africa this variety has been a major success for us at Parterre. We are very proud that it was one of the first perfume crops we grew at Keyneston Mill, our Dorset home. The oil we produced received a resounding 10 out of 10 from our team of perfume experts when they reviewed it. In fact, one team member suggested we grow 50 acres of geranium!
Geranium oil has a definite rose scent. But it also has a citrus, slightly minty freshness with additional earthiness.
As you would expect, geranium oil has a definite rose scent. But it also has a citrussy, slightly minty freshness with additional earthiness. This gives it a contemporary edge. And this is the reason why it is frequently used by perfumers, either on its own or blended with rose absolute.
