Fleur d'Osmanthus by Roger & Gallet

Love London

In a sleepy Chinese Eden, nestled in the valley of Guilin, grows the rare and precious plant Osmanthus, the inspiration behind Roger & Gallet's latest scent. Taking two years for the shrub to grow, the tiny clusters of apricot flowers reveal a cascade of gourmet floral notes - mixed with a juicy apricot scent the result is a stress-reducing and uplifting effect.

Top notes of natural mandarin essential oil and orange zest move into Osmanthus, natural grapefruit essential oil and neroli, with base notes of Tonka bean, sandalwoold and benzoin essential oil. The range consists of four separate products. The delicious honey texture of the Foaming Shower Honey transforms into a foam on contact with water, enriched with apricot extract - known for its softening qualities - as well as Vitamin E, recognised for its anti-free radical properties.

The Perfumed Soap, in its iconic sun-shaped pleated silk paper, is produced according to Roger & Gallet's traditional 'cauldron method' which seals the fragrance into the heart of the soap and maintains its authenticity throughout use. A blend of mandarin, grapefruit and benzoin essential oils, the fragrance is good enough to eat!

The Moisturising Fragrant Body Lotion is formulated from a base of apricot milk, known for its moisturising qualities, as well as sweet almond oil. The non-greasy texture leaves skin deliciously soft to the touch. Finish with a spritz of the Fresh Fragrant Water Spray for beautifully layered scent.
