An elegant dance between shadow and light, Neroli Noir sets the opulent radiance of white florals against the sumptuous depths of cocoa. A sophisticated gourmand fragrance with floral and citrus facets, it is at once sensual and ethereal, comforting yet mysterious.
A fresh amber fragrance with a free-spirited vibe. Haute Bohème segues from juicy citrus top notes to a verdant heart of violet leaf, neroli, lavender and tobacco. Patchouli joins powdery orris, cozy vanilla, benzoin and labdanum in the base as they settle into a soft ambery glow.
Creamy florals join precious woods in an exquisite haven of scent that invites you to savor the moment. Elevating sandalwood nestles with a sensuous heart of jasmine, orange blossom, ylang-ylang and lavender, then melds with patchouli and oakmoss in the base.
Memories drift by like buoys on the water. Bright colored leaves in autumn, walks along the rocky beach, sailing on the Sound with friends — salty sea breezes moving us forward. Wood smoke in winter, the smell of newly roused earth in spring. Summers in the herb garden … read more

"Tuberose, my favorite floral note, shines brightly in No. 9. The interplay between fresh fir and seductive tuberose sets the stage for this exquisite perfume. No. 9 imparts a beautiful chiaroscuro effect that’s both radiant and mysterious. It’s refined and very sexy. A masterpiece of creativity and skillful blending.” — Isabelle A., Oyster Bay, NY

“Haute Bohème is my favorite amber fragrance. It’s luxuriously nonchalant. Wearing it makes me feel like I don’t have a care in the world. Each phase is equally gorgeous as it evolves from spicy top notes to a glowing heart and cozy base. And I love that the ingredients are all natural. Thanks for a stellar perfume!” — Olivia R., Short Hills, NJ
What Our Customers Are Saying…
“Tried a dozen different perfumes at Nordstrom’s today. Even fragrances that I used to wear were unappealing. They all had a flat, cloying aspect that wasn’t pleasant. And I couldn’t get past the fact that I was basically smelling chemicals. Bottom line: your natural perfumes are far superior to those synthetic brands. I’ll never go back.” — Kriss M., Vail, AZ
What Our Customers Are Saying…
“From the opening notes of mint and ginger through the beautiful leathery dry-down, Lotusland takes you on a fascinating trip. It’s opulent and intense, with a very mystical vibe … equal parts earthy, ethereal and sensuous. I love the way I feel when I wear it. It takes me out of myself to where I’m very relaxed and open." — Carolyn H., New York, NY

“I’m wearing No. 9 today…so beautiful! After trying several of your fragrances, I find them to have remarkable clarity coupled with inspired blending and tastefully discreet sillage. And your creations go from gorgeous to profound as time goes on. Favorites are Lotusland, No. 9, Haute Bohème and Westport.” — Susannah C., Glendale, CA
Bask in the opulence of roses. Mystic Rose shimmers with rich Moroccan rose, creamy East Indian sandalwood, spicy cardamom, and the whisper of incense on a light citrusy breeze. Lavishly comforting. Uplifting. Sensuous.
A modern take on a classic essence. Opening with crisp top notes of lavender and blue tansy, Love Lavender segues into a seductive heart of hypnotic neroli, orange blossom and lavender absolute. Cedarwood joins labdanum and tobacco in the warm, leathery base.
Part hedonism. Part zen. Pure bliss. A bewitching alchemy of the sensual and the spiritual, Lotusland features the divine pink lotus and a luxurious leather accord redolent of the finest suede. The ultimate skin scent, at once animalic and elevating.
I have always believed true luxury comes only from truly natural ingredients. When it comes to quality, there is simply no substitute for the real thing.
That's why we hand-blend our fragrances exclusively with the world’s finest botanical ingredients. They contain absolutely no synthetics, aroma chemicals or petrochemicals, ever. Enjoy! — Claudia Cusani
