Eau de Basilic Pourpre
Purple basil, peppery and darker than the kitchen variety, softened by a rosy geranium over dry patchouli. The herb bed rather than the fruit bowl: a green cologne for hot days.
Lime Basil & Mandarin
A bright citrus in which lime is cut by peppery basil and aromatic thyme. Fresh and short-lived, it is the kind of scent you reapply at midday.
