When you set out to search the internet for a clean perfume, what were you hoping to find? Were you hoping to find better ingredients? Or like me, do you want something that is completely natural, meaning nothing toxic or questionable and nothing synthetic? Something using only ingredients that come from nature and are minimally processed?
If your goal is to find something truly natural and completely non-synthetic, than I hate to tell you that most of the brands that are turning up in your search results are not clean. Don’t take my word for it though, look for the ingredients on the websites. Often they hard to find and you have to wade through all their glowing praise of all the things they don’t use, but keep looking and eventually you will find out that they still contain synthetic fragrance.
By now you are probably wondering do natural perfumes exist? Yes! They are rare though. And usually they are not comparable to conventional perfumes. In my opinion a natural perfume should be made of essential oils and absolutes made directly from fragrant things found in nature. These natural elements can not begin to compare with synthetically created fragrances, so if your ideal natural perfume would work exactly like your favorite conventional perfume, I'll tell you straight up you will be disappointed. The natural elements just don’t have the staying power that synthetic fragrances do. However, I have found that by using certain essential oils and absolutes that have more tenacity, and lower evaporation rates, I can create something that performs better than your average homemade essential oil perfume blend. The more popular conventional perfumes contains lots of different notes, all blended and aged together to become something new and special. Our organic essential oil perfumes are made similarly, which gives us a more complex, longer lasting scent compared to most essential oil perfumes.
