Can You Bottle Nature?

“A zen scent”

HERMETICA CEDARISE EDP, FROM $175

It smells like… a traditional, zen Japanese hotel that’s found in the heart of a bamboo forest. Hits of cedar and cypress combine to form a dry, woody-green scent that is really pleasing.

It’s sustainable because… “green fragrance” formulas are created using both natural ingredients and synthetic molecules, all derived from reusable raw materials. In addition, the brand also uses locally-sourced recycled glass for its bottles. — Jenine Oh

“Take me there”

RIAU CANDLE CO. IN MOUNTAIN RAIN, FROM $10

It smells like… the tranquil days spent in the mountains of Ladakh; soothing and calming.
