Let’s talk about one of our best-selling blends, Nova - an ode to our founder’s daughter and a celebration of her own experience of motherhood.
Nova was created as a distinctively feminine scent with the star-shaped flower of jasmine as its defining note. As well as being a star that shines brightly, Nova also means ‘new’ and symbolises new beginnings and a sense of optimism.
Soft, powdery rose geranium essential pairs beautifully with the bright notes of and neroli and mandarin peel to create an elegant, floral celebration.
