Our partner in emissions tracking, Bluebird Climate, calculates each product’s footprint using Greenhouse Gas Protocol, which considers emissions from materials, ingredients, manufacturing, transportation, and distribution. A product’s waste footprint is calculated by examining its recyclability and degradability.
By combining DNA sequencing with the expertise of world renowned perfumers, we’ve brought new life to the extinct Shorea cuspidata, a towering tree endemic to Borneo, whose branches once grazed the sky at up to 45 meters.
