Bergamot and Green Cardamom open Antiquarian with their fresh and sparkling qualities. The spice of Green Cardamom then softens into a warmer, richer and velvety shadow of Cardamom Absolute. Its woody undertones are amplified by Cedarwood, whose dryness tempers the sweetness of the Cardamom and Vanilla. House tinctured Saffron is boosted by an exquisite oleoresin from Iran; a familiar warm and salty skin scent, with a subtle leather note reminiscent of a dusty antique book cover.

The book is opened and immediately that comforting vanillin scent of old pages appears. Vanillin is closely related to Lignin, a volatile organic compound that is found in wood-based paper, and as it ages gives that characteristic scent to old books. An in-house extraction of A-grade Vanilla Beans sourced from far north Queensland, alongside Madagascan Oleoresin and Brazilian Absolute create a decadent Vanilla dry down. Vanuatu Sandalwood elevates the woody aspects of Vanilla, whilst Opoponax accentuates it's resinous and gourmand side with a soft muskiness.

Extrait de Parfum is traditionally applied from a dab bottle—a slow and intimate ritual that leaves the perfect trace of fragrance on your skin. Create a tight seal with the neck of your perfume bottle on your inner wrist and gently tilt the bottle until the perfume meets your skin. Once the bottle is upright again, break the seal and return the cap to the bottle. You can gently dab your wrists together or dab your wrist onto the part of your body you desire to fragrance. Try not to rub the fragrance, as it will bruise, and you won’t experience the full journey of top notes. We recommend the pulse points—the nape of the neck and inner wrists.
