Scent Stories Vol.1/Ch.03
$280.00

Born in a hidden glade where sunlight dances through emerald leaves, THE BOTANIST captures the magic of a forest in full bloom. Imagine stepping into a verdant sanctuary, where the air hums with the scent of wildflowers, ancient trees, and rich earth. This fragrance is a love letter to nature’s symphony, crafted to evoke the serenity of a woodland escape and the elegance of its untamed beauty. THE BOTANIST is more than a scent; it’s an invitation to breathe deeply, to reconnect with the earth, and to carry its tranquil allure wherever you wander.

Vibrant, serene, and effortlessly elegant, THE BOTANIST is a floral green fragrance that envelops you in the lush embrace of nature’s finest. It bursts open with a zesty spark of grapefruit, bergamot, pink peppercorn, and crisp apple, like sunlight piercing a forest canopy. The heart unfurls a radiant bouquet of peony, cypress, lily of the valley, and rose, weaving delicate florals with woody depth, as if wildflowers sway in a gentle breeze. The base settles into a warm, grounding blend of vetiver, musk, and ambergris, leaving a sensual, earthy trail that lingers like the pulse of the forest floor. THE BOTANIST is a timeless ode to nature’s harmony—refreshing, sophisticated, and alive.

THE BOTANIST opens with a vibrant and inviting blend, where zesty grapefruit and bergamot meet the spicy warmth of pink peppercorn and the crisp sweetness of apple—a lively nod to nature’s freshness. The heart blooms like a sunlit meadow, with peony’s lush radiance, lily of the valley’s delicate purity, and rose’s regal charm, anchored by the timeless depth of cypress. In the drydown, earthy vetiver and sensual musk intertwine with the oceanic whisper of ambergris, creating an addictive, grounding finish that feels like a walk through an ancient forest. Part of MiN NEW YORK’S Scent Stories collection, this fragrance balances elegance and tranquility with effortless grace.
