An Aquatic Green Floral Inspired by Borneo’s Canopy
An invitation to slow down with Floating Forest, a cooling aquatic floral inspired by Shorea cuspidata, a towering rainforest tree once native to Borneo and lost to logging after 1998. Known for rising over 160 feet into the canopy, it was part of one of the most biodiverse ecosystems on Earth. This fragrance evokes a quiet meditation in scent, green, lush, and serene in a world that moves fast.
Scientific Reconstruction:
Through biotechnology, scent molecules from the extinct Shorea cuspidata were identified and reinterpreted into this unique watery-green composition. Perfumer Jérôme Epinette approached the scent as a form of time travel, reconstructing not just the flower, but the entire environment it once inhabited.
Key Notes:
Top Notes | Cooling Bergamot and Black Pepper
Middle Notes | Dewy Freesia, Water Lily and Rose Absolute
Base Notes | Salted Musk, Wet Stones and Papyrus
Perfumer: Jérôme Epinette
Why You’ll Love It:
- Smells like stillness, cool, green, and deeply calming.
- The perfect “clean skin but better” scent, without going soapy.
- It lingers like morning fog, soft, mineral, and quietly magnetic.
- A scent with a story, rooted in an extinct rainforest tree once found only in Borneo.

As a collector of fine fragrance, I have found many perfumes that I love but I felt like I was still always searching for “the one.” When I got my hands on this, I knew I found it. This scent is sublime. It smells like you just took the most luxurious shower of your life in the middle of a dense gorgeous forest drenched in sunlight. I get compliments on this fragrance every time I wear it. It’s simply perfect.

If you like that petrichor business, may I please invite you to fill a bathtub with Floating Forest and just live in it forever. A bit of hyperbole is necessary for me to review this scent because even though I've owned the full-size for a couple months, I still cannot get over it. I will put my face straight into my shirt just to get a big inhale. Loves your skin, or at least it loves mine. This scent is watery, mineral and spicy, and the perfumers are NOT kidding about the "wet stones" note. Intoxicating. I'm obsessed. This scent automatically improves my mood. It's also nothing like I've ever smelled before. Also! Pretty gender-neutral! Anyone can and should wear it.
