Rosemary
En aromatisk og dybt kamferholdig tone, der bruges i maskuline dufte, mest fremtrædende i eaux de toilettes og toiletartikler. Den er urteagtig og frisk med træagtige undertoner, der fremmaner den friske duft af røgelsesolie.
Rosmarin er en favorit i klassiske mandedufte og fougère-kompositioner, hvor dens skarpe, krydrede karakter får lov at folde sig ud. Den parres smukt med lavendel, citrus, cedertræ og mos og bidrager med en næsten meditativ, klar friskhed til en duft.
I moderne parfumeri bruges rosmarin også i unisex-dufte, hvor dens energigivende og rensende karakter passer perfekt til en aktiv, sofistikeret livsstil. Rosmarinens evne til at vække sanserne og fremmane billeder af middelhavskøkkener, urtehaver og solbeskinnede landskaber gør den til en mindeværdig og alsidig tone.
Aromatisk, kamferholdig og urteagtig - en frisk og maskulin grundpille.

Historie
In the Middle Ages, rosemary was placed under pillows to keep evil spirits and rascally witches away. It was even thought to ward off the plague. Ancient Greeks doted on the herb for its fragrant qualities, but also believed that it could improve memory—resulting in students wearing rosemary garlands during lessons. Others linked rosemary to happy memories, fidelity and love, which has made it a popular wedding staple across Europe since Charlemagne. In perfumery, the first known alcohol-based perfume that utilized rosemary was l’Eau de la Reine de Hongrie—with its first known usage during the 17th century, but which may date back as far as the 14th century.
Produktion
Rosemary bushes grow wild in the dry, rocky scrubland of the Mediterranean basin. For perfumery, the deeply aromatic plant is cultivated in the south of France, Tunisia and Morocco, as well as some parts of Spain. Its essence is obtained through steam distillation.
