THE FRAGRANT GARLAND OF ALOHA REVERIE

Living Libations Lei Lady Lei Petal Perfume is a bloom of hypnotic Hawaiian reverie. Ensorcel your aura in a garland of tropical scented-swoon. The flower power concentrated in this perfume is dazzling: Carnation to caress the senses, Tuberose to petal poetic prose, Jasmine and Ylang to sing of sensuality as they cling to the skin, and Golden Champa to weave a garland of grace around the foundation of Sandalwood’s heartwood embrace. Inspired by the scent of Hawaiian leis, Lei Lady Lei is filled with a fountain of flowers; a spritz of these exquisite essences imbues a euphoric aura of bliss upon the skin.

How does it smell? It smells like aromatic-aloha, a sun-drenched tropical garden in full bloom. Decanted into this bottle is a fragrant floral chorale: a plush, white-petal warmth brimming with floral euphoria and nectarous apricot-tea notes, all anchored in a creamy heartwood cushion. It leaves a lingering scent-trail of blossoms where, upon inhalation, you realize the life you love is standing right in front of you.

ORGANIC INGREDIENTS + APPLICATIONS

Application: Spritz on pulse points, neck, and hair to garland your aura in a lush Hawaiian lei and transport your space to a tropical paradise.

Tuberose Petals — Polianthes tuberosa
Tantalizing Tuberose is one of the rarest, sought-after substances in natural perfumery for its heady floral-honey aroma that exudes floral-balsamic elegance. It is known in ancient lore as the 'Mistress of the Night' because its blossoms reveal their aroma under the stars. Its fragrant phytochemistry is replete in natural aromatic esters and lactones, yielding a euphoric sweetness with subtle green-balsamic nuances. Hawaiian lei-makers cherish Tuberose for adding heady floral depth to traditional garlands.

Jasmine Sambac — Jasminum sambac
Juicy Jasmine Sambac is wild-crafted in India, drawn from the fragrant depths of night-blooming blossoms. Differing from Jasmine Grandiflorum, which opens its petals at dawn, Jasmine Sambac communes with the mystery of the moon, capturing the sweet essence of warm tropical nights. A pillar of high perfumery, its enrapturing aroma imparts smoothness, warmth, and floral levity to the bouquet. Its natural phytochemical profile is sated by aromatic esters such as benzyl acetate, methyl anthranilate, and methyl jasmonate, balanced by linalool and trace indole, giving the fragrance its sweet, musky, and iconic hypnotic-floral character.

Carnation — Dianthus caryophyllus
Enchanting Carnation exudes notes of warm honey, floral spice, with a hint of lilac-languor. Historically revered as the high-bloom of Renaissance perfumery, true Carnation Absolute adds a spicy-floral heart note with lasting tenacity. Its unique aromatic signature is defined by a rich matrix of natural eugenol and isoeugenol, which provide its characteristic fiery spice and smooth balsamic warmth. Illuminated by phenylethyl alcohol for a honeyed-rose facet and benzyl salicylate to add airy floral diffusion, Carnation transforms the floral bouquet into a floral tapestry.

Ylang Ylang — Cananga odorata
The Flower of Flowers exudes an exotic, amorous fragrance that floats on tropical breezes. Steam-distilled in the verdant lushness of Madagascar, Ylang Ylang is a cheerful floral essence that brings effervescent levity to natural perfumery. Rich in sweet esters alongside soothing sesquiterpenes of beta-caryophyllene, it exudes a euphoric heart note. Ylang’s floral aroma harmonizes heavier notes while bridging the lighter blossoms into an aura of bliss.

Golden Champa — Michelia champaca
The essence of this big blossom unleashes garlands of aromatic resplendence. In this exquisite perfume, Golden Champa blossoms are co-distilled directly into rich Sandalwood, uniting the flower's velvety floral warmth with the smooth embrace of precious heartwood. The floral portion of this co-distillation is rich in natural linalool, giving Golden Champa its distinct tea-like, apricot-honeyed, and exotic floral bouquet. This special co-distillation bridges the top floral notes with the deep woodsy base, creating an ancient alchemy that is at the root of antiquity perfumery.

Royal Hawaiian Sandalwood — Santalum paniculatum
Sustainably harvested in Hawaii as part of an enduring reforestation project, this creamy, full-bodied wood oil is a master fixative in natural perfumery. Rich in special alpha-santalol and beta-santalol, Hawaiian Sandalwood is a slow-motion fixative for volatile floral notes, slowing down their evaporation and weaving them into a lingering, intimate scent trail. Its warm, buttery, and woody aroma initiates a subtle alchemy on the skin, fusing with your natural chemistry to transform tropical blossoms into smooth, velvety grace.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How does this differ from typical "tropical" summer fragrances?
Conventional tropical scents rely heavily on synthetic coconut, artificial monoi, and petrochemical fixatives that can feel sticky, overpowering, or artificial. Lei Lady Lei is 100% natural and crafted entirely from pure botanical extractions and rare floral absolutes distilled into organic biodynamic alcohol. Instead of synthetic tropical notes, it captures the authentic, living scent of an island lei: fresh blossoms warming under the Hawaiian sun, swirled in genuine sandalwood.

How long does Lei Lady Lei last, and how should I apply it?
The floral notes of Jasmine, Carnation, and Tuberose are deep and lasting and they are further anchored by the natural fragrant fixatives of the Royal Hawaiian Sandalwood and rare Golden Champa-sandalwood co-distillation. The natural santalols slow the evaporation of the floral micro-molecules, allowing the fragrance to linger for hours. Spritz onto pulse points, the nape of the neck, and into hair or natural-fiber clothing. Body heat and movement will gently reactivate the lipophilic botanical oils throughout the day.
