The characters

Five boxes, five moods.

The craft

Extrait, by intention.

Most designer fragrances are eau de parfum — 15 to 20% perfume oil. Every Roots Theory composition is blended as an extrait de parfum at 35%: deeper woods, musks and ambers that stay on the skin, while brighter notes keep moving.
