We are proud to introduce our first fragrance collaboration with Taigrance, our retail partner based in Taiwan. Olive Tree is inspired by the classic Taiwanese folk song of the same name, with lyrics written by the legendary female author, Sanmao. This April, Chris, the founder of Taigrance, visited us in Kuala Lumpur, where we spent time exchanging ideas and exploring the olfactory vision behind Olive Tree. Together, we embarked on the creative process, from carefully selecting the finest materials and thoughtfully pairing each ingredient, to blending them drop by drop and refining the composition along the way. It was a process of discovery and collaboration, in which we drew upon our knowledge and perfumery expertise to translate Chris’s vision into a finished composition. Every material, accord and nuance was considered with care, gradually shaping Olive Tree into its final form.
Chris envisioned a composition inspired by the beauty and poetry of this beloved folk song. Together, we explored the theme of Olive Tree, which is about a journey of wandering beyond the familiar, drawn by a longing for distant landscapes and an elusive ideal that exists somewhere between reality and dream. The olfactory journey begins with basil and olive leaves, evoking the image of a Mediterranean olive grove bathed in the warmth of a distant sun. Beneath this sunlit verdure, Taiwanese black tea emerges with a gentle bitterness and astringency, introducing a subtle hint of the lyricist’s homeland, the point of origin from which the journey begins. This is the moment that Chris described to us as entering the dream, the point where the boundaries between reality and reverie begin to dissolve, echoing the dreamlike imagery of the song lyrics. As the journey moves further into this imagined landscape, the heart of the composition begins to take shape. Olive blossom, jasmine, iris, tree moss and amyris emerge in delicate layers, their floral nuances woven together with transparent woods and delicate mossy tones. The result is our interpretation of Chris’s olfactory vision. A fragrance that transports us into a vast and ethereal dreamscape, where flowers, trees and the surrounding air seem to dissolve into one another. As the dream unfolds, these elements gradually draw the imagination towards the vision of a faraway olive tree. It is not simply a destination, but an elusive ideal, the very object of longing that gives meaning to the wandering at the heart of the song. The composition finally settles upon a foundation of olive fruit, ambergris, ambrette seed and musk. Together, these notes bring the fragrance to its completion while continuing the emotional arc of the song. The olive tree remains just beyond reach, suspended between memory, longing and dream. Perhaps this is what makes the journey meaningful. Not the certainty of arrival, but the beauty of continuing to wander towards the ideals we yearn for.
Due to the nature and quality of the raw materials used, the scent will continue to age beautifully in the bottle with time when properly stored. It is normal to have some sediments/separations in this scent due to the nature of the raw materials used. Just gently shake well before applying it.
