An Aromatic Floral Rooted in America’s Lost Prairie

Feel grounded with Grassland Opera, a crisp, green floral inspired by Orbexilum stipulatum, a prairie bloom once native to Rock Island, believed extinct due to buffalo migration after 1881.  Known to spread quietly through its roots and not through seeds, locals still search for its return, drawn by the hope that something so deeply rooted might rise again. This scent honors resilience and rootedness, a celebration of staying true to who you are.

Scientific Reconstruction:
Through biotechnology, scent molecules inspired by Orbexilum stipulatum were identified and reinterpreted into a vibrant, herbaceous composition. Perfumer Olivia Jan took a precise, technical approach, replicating the scent’s extinct elements to evoke the quiet richness of the open plains.

Key Notes:

• Clary Sage, Ginger & Fig Leaves
• Ylang Ylang, Jasmine & Mimosa
• Sandalwood, Patchouli & Guaiacwood
  

Why You’ll Love It:

• The greenest green, fresh, herbal, and vibrant without being sharp
• Smells clean and comforting like fresh air with a soft, skin-like musk
• Lasts all day, grounding and effortlessly wearable
• A scent with a story, reviving a lost prairie flower once rooted in wild soil
