Description

Vibe ° Palo Santo ° Wild Desert Blooms ° Leather

Stargazing the night sky at Joshua Tree, the scent of cool, herbaceous high desert notes, with sacred Brazilian black copal, wild white sage, eucalypt and palo santo piercing the cool air, grounded by base notes of leather, mitti attar and oud.

“Sacred notes of palo santo, wild white sage, and black copal, are the incenses of the Americas, burned in ceremony for protection and clarity; as oils they smell as cool as the desert night.”

—Tanaïs, “Mojave,” In Sensorium: Notes For My People

What is MOJAVE ° PERFUME OIL and what makes it different?

MOJAVE ° PERFUME OIL is TANAÏS's alcohol-free rollerball inspired by stargazing at Joshua Tree. The 10 ml oil composition centers on cool herbaceous high-desert notes with palo santo, wild white sage, and eucalypt piercing the air, grounded by leather, mitti attar, and oud.

What notes does MOJAVE ° PERFUME OIL feature?

MOJAVE ° PERFUME OIL opens with sacred black copal, wildcrafted white sage, eucalyptus blue maille, and juniper leaf. The heart carries a leather accord with linden blossom and palo santo. Base notes settle into mitti attar, sandalwood, aloeswood, and animalic amber for grounded desert depth.

How do you apply MOJAVE ° PERFUME OIL?

Apply MOJAVE ° PERFUME OIL by rolling the ball onto warm pulse points: inner wrists, throat, behind the ears, and the crook of the elbow. The alcohol-free coconut oil base keeps the leather and copal close to skin. Reapply midday to refresh the cool desert notes.

How does MOJAVE ° PERFUME OIL compare to the extrait de parfum version?

MOJAVE ° PERFUME OIL is the alcohol-free rollerball form of the composition. TANAÏS's MOJAVE Extrait de Parfum is the higher-concentration spray in 30 ml and 50 ml flacons, projecting more into the air. Reach for the oil when you want the desert accord felt only up close.

What pairs with MOJAVE ° PERFUME OIL?

MOJAVE ° PERFUME OIL layers naturally with the matching MOJAVE Extrait de Parfum for reinforced sillage on the same accord. For a different mood in the rotation, TANAÏS's COSMIC Perfume Oil brings a jasmine-and-patchouli dreamscape, an astral counterpart to Mojave's grounded desert.
