Neroli and Vetiver, the newest essences have opened another chapter into La Collection des Essences. Itís more related to Mr Saab in a sense. Like, for Essence N∞ 7 Neroli, it is all about white, the whites used by Mr Saab in its creations. As the Neroli is a white flower, there again it was obvious that we would use Neroli. At the same time I had challenged the vendor who provided me Neroli as I was looking for a new quality of Neroli with specific characteristics, and he came out with a Neroli from Lebanon, which was both unusual and so relevant for Mr Saabís essences. There was only a very small harvest which I totally bought for this essence.
Essence N∞ 6 Vetiver was born from Mr Saabís taste for this note. I worked on this new essence as if it were a fragrance for Mr Saab. We submitted different leads to him and one particularly called his attention. It than became Essence N∞ 6.
