Terroir Parfum of Kleinood Farm by de Boerin
On Kleinood Farm we have always put terroir first in the wine we make. So too, it is ever present in our olive oil, verjus and honey. Why then, if one could taste terroir, could one not wear it and smell it and smell of it?
In winter, while meandering in the Kleinood forest, we could smell the goodness and warmth of the rotting leaves and wood, the darkness in the rich black soil and the fresh bright minerality of river water gushing over rocks and roots.
These all now live on in the natural perfume we call Winter Water.
“The river water has a different quality in winter. It certainly has something to do with the rainwater washing vegetation into the river, but it’s more than that…”
the forest
still
in deep-winter
dappled light
droplets on leaves
wet bark
and moss on stones
and mist
and pale
bare branches
weeping over
clear-with-cold
foaming silver
gushing rushing
ever-new
winter water
Notes:
A terroir driven perfume inspired and composed around the natural qualities and attributes of Kleinood Farm.
It was created from only pure and unmodified essential oils of cypriol, birch-tar, precious woods, vetiver and frankincense.
A slightly secretive and seductively aromatic perfume.
Opening with the freshness and minerality of clear cold river water, it develops into complex notes of wood, earth, moss and leaves.
These earthy notes are well supported by smoky undertones of faraway winter fires and a lingering finish of rich warm tobacco.
Certain skins might well bring a complex and somewhat animalic leathery aroma to the fore…
A unisex parfum.
