Natural perfume is made entirely from materials sourced from the natural world: essential oils, absolutes, CO2 extracts, and natural isolates (molecules extracted from botanical sources like flowers, fruits, and spices).
At Gaetana, we use no synthetic aroma chemicals - just true botanicals and plant-derived molecules, blended into organic sugarcane alcohol.
The result is perfume that breathes, is complex, textured, and emotionally alive. Each formula is blended to carry the scent softly on skin, evolving like a living thing.
Our perfumes are blended into certified organic sugarcane alcohol - a pure, non-denatured base.
Denatured alcohol is typically treated with additives that can irritate skin or disrupt hormones. We use a food-grade alcohol that’s free from synthetics, stabilisers, or masking agents. It allows the scent to move softly and freely on skin.
Our natural perfumes typically last 3 to 5 hours, depending on the scent and your skin.
Since we do not use chemical fixatives for lasting power, our natural perfume moves with the skin, unfolding in layers and leaving a soft, lingering presence.
We source ingredients from all over the world, working with expert producers and distillers who specialise in rare botanicals.
We’ll go through dozens of rose absolutes, for example, to find the one that captures both the scent and feeling we want to convey.
Every material we use is chosen for its olfactive beauty, sourcing integrity, and impact.
Our caps are made from natural rose quartz. As a natural material, each one has its own subtle variations and no two are exactly alike.
Our perfumes are potent botanical compositions, free from synthetic aroma chemicals, preservatives, and phthalates.
If you have very sensitive skin or allergies, we recommend a patch test before full use. For most wearers, natural perfume feels soft and breathable.
Natural perfume interacts with your skin’s chemistry, pH, and warmth and blooms differently on each person. This is part of its beauty: the scent becomes intimately yours.
