Phul-Nana is a release from Niche luxury perfume house Grossmith and perfumer Trevor Nicholl. London perfume house Grossmith is a house originally founded in the 19th century by John Grossmith before being resurrected. Years of research led to finding the original formula books, from which Grossmith's original 19th century fragrances were brought back. Today, Grossmith is run by Simon, Amanda, Eleanor, and Kate Brooke - 5th and 6th generation descendants of John Grossmith - that have "restored Grossmith to its rightful place as a prominent classic English perfume house that once again is producing the finest perfume in the world." The Classic Collection fragrances ressurrect the perfumes of the 19th century Grossmith: "Using the original formulae and keeping natural materials wherever possible, irrespective of cost, Grossmith have ‘remastered’ three classic fragrances, Hasu-no-Hana (1888), Phul-Nana (1891) and Shem-el-Nessim (1906)". Phul-Nana, an Amber Fougere, has a scent profile of amber, woody, fresh spicy, aromatic, warm spicy, vanilla, sweet, citrus, balsamic, and white floral. Top Notes Neroli, Bergamot, Orange Heart Notes Geranium, Ylang-Ylang, Tuberose Base Notes Opoponax, Tonka Bean, Benzoin Siam, Sandalwood, Patchouli, Vanilla Bourbon, Cedarwood From Grossmith: "Hindi for 'lovely flower.' A fresh, sweet Floral composition with aromatic Fougère overtones on a soft, warm, woody base. Originally created in 1891, this scent is a rare marriage of the herb garden with the flower garden, unusual in a feminine fragrance. It paved the way for the ‘modern’ fragrances that were to follow." Note: Samples are sold by the 0.5ml. You may purchase only up to 1ml.
