Invigorating ginger, creamy narcotic tuberose and uplifting sandalwood in this pure parfum, create feelings of pure joy.

Perfumer Caroline Dumur was inspired both by the name ‘smitam’ (smile in Sanskrit) and the tuberose flower, central to celebrations in India. Blended with invigorating, bright, warm and positive notes of ginger, medicinal ginseng, a creamy woody sandalwood and tiny dose of green cardamom, Smitam Santal is a transformative olfactive portrait of a smile and a joy to wear. It's hard to say smitam without smiling!

The ginger uplifting Smitam Santal brings a warm, spicy, invigorating character, but also a slightly brown sugar and zesty accord. It pairs with the slightly bitter medicinal qualities of ginseng and cardamom and is grounded by fruity patchouli with vegetal undertones.

The creamy white floral notes of the narcotic tuberose lend an exotic warmth, marrying with the base of creamy, aromatic, woody sandalwood and dry cedar accords. At the heart of the scent a light touch of frankincense and cypriol add a resinous citrus blending with the ginger and as well as lending a slightly smoky, meditative vibe.

Smitam Santal is a transformative functional fragrance promoting a sense of joy, positivity and happiness.

“An olfactory portrait of a joyful smile”

SMITAM in Sanskrit is an unadulterated smile in full bloom, infused with light and joy. Read it out loud - even the name demands a smile :)

Smitam is like a beautiful flower and just as a flower blossoms in the warmth of the sun, so our smile blooms blessings, both the one that gives and the one that receives. It is full of energy and love, it warms, lights, nourishes and uplifts bringing joy to all.

Perfumer Caroline Dumur was inspired by the name and chose to centre the perfume around the tuberose flower because it is widely used to scent celebrations, festivals and rituals across India.

PERFORMANCE
Extrait de Parfum (25%).
Smitam Santal creates a positive aura and medium projection with a long lasting performance.

This is a delight to wear any time of the day, during any season at any and every occasion. It is warm and spicy, comforting the cooler seasons, but the exotic nature of the ginger and tuberose sit happily in the heat, and the incense and green medicinal and floral notes connect to Spring.

This perfume is present and positive, but not overwhelming: unique and original scent, but it isn’t divisive or a ‘beast scent’, it’s eternally uplifting and mood-boosting.

CHAKRA: The Heart Chakra, also known as Anahata, is the fourth chakra in the seven-chakra system. It's located in the center of the chest and is associated with love, compassion, emotional balance, and healthy relationships. A balanced Heart Chakra fosters inner peace, deep connection, and empathy.

SOURCE OF INSPIRATION
The history of perfumes: “I work with history. It’s what I do everyday.”

KEY
“Over the top - having large quantities of raw materials in a formula gives more clarity, depth and intensity.”

MISSION STATEMENT
Masterpiece, “experiencing that sense of pride in taking a perfume or an idea as far as you can, achieving a kind of perfection and being stubbornly assiduous, like Roudnitska. Creating a masterpiece, creating this neat, short, precise formula. Finding a solution in my quest for perfection.”

PASSION
Chypre: “Chypre has a really interesting, elusive structure, a structure that is difficult to pin down. It’s a slightly nebulous structure, less clear than others, and that’s what fascinates me. When you smell a real chypre perfume, you just know, without really knowing why, that it’s a chypre scent. It has unrivaled depth and intensity.”

Caroline Dumur - Perfumer
