SMOKY SCENTS SALE. Take 50% OFF with SMOKE50Smoke is one of the more underappreciated and underanalyzed smells. I hesitate to call it a note because there are almost infinite notes and sources of smoke. And yet it is one of those “notes” that tends to be wholesale rejected by some perfume wearers. With this sale I invite you to immerse yourself in the polyscentuous world of smoke. Due to heavy order volume current processing time is up to 2-3 weeks.

Starting plumeria enfleurage by cultivar.

Starting plumeria enfleurage by cultivar at the De Luz site. This is my first time enfleuraging plumeria (frangipani) that I have put in the ground, and my first time extracting them by cultivar. In Vermont I had about 20 plants but they were all potted. Going dormant in the winter, they stayed relatively small with only a short 12-18 week growing season. I would enfleurage them all in one corps. Now that I have approximately 50 trees in the ground in growing zone 10b, the possibilities have opened up for year round extraction by varietal. First up: a California variety with strong peach genetics. This flower opens with a ripe peach juice scent in the morning, but by evening the vintage suntan lotion and creamy apricot aromas take over. I can't wait to see how it performs on the enfleurage chassis.
 
Once my plants are larger, I plan to propagate them with 12+ inch cuttings.
