About this fragrance
Palo Santo + Sage is a sacred, cleansing ritual designed to purify your space and restore inner peace. It opens with dry white sage, lifted by bright citrus zest, fresh green leaves, a cooling whisper of eucalyptus, and a bright twist of lemon.
As it settles, a quiet aromatic hush takes hold, a soothing pause before the ritual deepens further, calm and steady like a held breath in a sunlit room.
It grounds itself in a deep, meditative base. Rich earthy dark patchouli joins deep cedarwood and soft woods, warmed by a touch of clove and a whisper of vanilla, leaving a lingering trail of quiet strength and rustic elegance.
