The Art of Natural Perfumery

In an age of synthetic fragrance, rareESSENCE revives the ancient craft of botanical perfumery capturing the living essence of flowers, woods, resins, roots, and herbs in every drop.

Each perfume is blended in small batches using certified organic essential oils, absolutes, CO2 extracts, and pure golden jojoba oil. Sourced from growers and distillers around the world, these rare plant essences are carefully composed into fragrances that wear softly, evolve naturally, and become uniquely personal to the skin.

No synthetics. No compromises. Just nature, artistry, and scent in its purest form.

A Softer Way to Wear Perfume

Natural perfumes are not designed to overpower a room. They are designed to unfold gently, warming to the skin and blending with your natural chemistry to create something deeply personal.

Unlike synthetic fragrances built with chemical fixatives that force scent to linger for hours, botanical perfumes evolve naturally throughout the day soft, intimate, and alive with the complexity of real plant essences.

The result is a fragrance experience that feels closer, quieter, and more connected. A scent discovered in moments of nearness rather than announced from afar.

a message from one of the founders...

We hope you feel the love in every bottle.

As one of the founders of RARE ESSENCE, these perfumes are deeply personal to me — and I'd love to share a bit of the journey behind them.
It began in the late 1970’s, managing the herb loft at one of the country's first natural wellness stores where I discovered essential oils, precious little bottles of essences extracted from real plants and flowers. I started blending my own scents, wearing them as perfumes, and the compliments poured in: "You smell so good!, What is that perfume??"

Nothing else matched these natural essences— the richness of jasmine, the smokiness of vetiver.


I'd always loved scents, but synthetic fragrances gave me headaches. I learned their ingredients weren't natural or even tested for safety and these chemicals were hidden behind a "trade secret" loophole. It’s no wonder department store perfume counters felt su ocating and left me nauseous.

I dove deep into the history of perfumery and discovered something beautiful: people have been annoiting themselves with plant extracts since ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia. It was only when chemists learned to cheaply imitate nature that we lost the connection to these real aromas. Once I learned what was inside these synthetic imitations — phthalates, neurotoxins, hormone disruptors — I couldn't ignore it! Over the past 30 years, I’ve been on a mission to bring real perfume back, rooted in nature, free from synthetic imitation.

That journey has taken me to the rose valley of Bulgaria, lavender and chamomile fields of France — standing in the fields, breathing it all in, witnessing the harvest and distilling of these precious essences firsthand. There I met the people who have made this their lives work, some for generations. Their devotion to quality and authenticity moved me deeply — and it’s that same spirit we brought to our lab when we set out to create these perfumes.

These experiences inspired everything. Together with my partner Brian, and Heather, our gifted aromatherapist, we spent months, even years creating each perfume not as a formula, but as a composition. Like musicians finding harmony, we each bring our own nose to the lab, blending essences into something that connects deeply with the heart.

These are not like other perfumes. Rare and delicate, subtle and sexy — alluring without over-powering. They wear softly. Like a whisper, a soft breeze, a tender touch.

We hope you feel the love in every bottle. May the spirit of the flowers bring you joy.
