Perfumer's notes ....
If I have done my job here with Antique Tonka, a feeling of strength and comfort will be evoked. Commonly, fougere compositions lean heavily into herbs, spices, and intense woods, giving sharper, more confrontational edges to the profile. For this perfume I really wanted to lean into the harmony of tonka's hay facet, with a gentler hand on the accompanying notes. With timeless tonka being the centerpiece, a grounded, loyal, and resonant character is allowed to prevail.
My in house tonka and vanilla bean extracts are here in the base.
I find Antique Tonka to be a lovely and unique perfume redolent of grass, wild flowers, and nuances of incense.
As a natural perfume enthusiast, Antique Tonka has me jumping for joy. This creation is so thoughtfully constructed. It's warm, deep, inviting, sensual, everything I've wanted in a natural perfume that I haven't found. Although it comes across gourmond on my skin, I would say it's unisex, my husband is obsessed with it too!!! I put a bigger bottle on my Valentine wish list we like it so much! The packaging experience was also incredible. Everything was so thoughtfully packaged. You can tell love goes into each order, as the details make opening a whole experience. Gather perfume has impressed me and leaves me wanting more! I'll be over here taking wiffs of my arm until further notice! Thanks again for being such a stand out small company! You have a repeat customer for life.
Another beautiful scent. Thank you♥️
I have a severe fragrance sensitivity which has led me to also develop asthma. I’ve tried so many perfumes, even natural ones and all of them gave me an allergic reaction. I’ve also done straight essential oils, but they only last an hour or so.
To say I was thrilled about my purchase is an understatement. I am overjoyed to have finally found a unique, natural, affordable, long lasting perfume that fits who I am and what I do! A good friend introduced this company to me and I tried out her samples. I thought it was too good to be true!
What a revelation. So much so, that I will purchase a larger bottle to bring back home to the south of France.
