Lost In Flowers

Lost In Flowers is a perfume oil from Strangelove NYC with its own pyramid. The brand calls it ethereal and profound, ties it to the thrill of new love and the discovery of pure floral essences, and names jasmine, champaca, gardenia and saffron in its own account. Lily of the valley and cardamom open it, fresh and a touch spicy. The heart is all flowers: real tagette, red champaca absolute and jasmine, joined by saffron and oud. Gardenia enfleurage, French oakmoss, patchouli, white musks and sandalwood anchor the base. The flowers are central, but the spice, oud and moss stop it from being a simple, light bouquet, and the name hints at something prettier than what you smell. It lasts long on the skin, with a moderate reach and strength, so it stays close without vanishing. Spring and mild autumn days suit it best, but the florals work in daytime and the oud and moss give it enough weight for the evening. The mix of airy blooms and grounded woods is innocent and seductive at once.
