FRAGRANCE PROFILE
(Lepaar Founders and Owners) Christo said it smells like being back in the Omani desert, drinking milky Karak tea – not too sweet, with a lingering Vanilla spice and a dance of Frankincense. As for Johanna - ‘Something alpine, herbacous coming through and a faint note of the violet/licorice hued Iris root. Something that reminds me of my childhood, something that's imprinted in my DNA, a balsam that comforts my soul and heals my heart. I feel safe’.

ABOUT WHOLE PLANT EXTRACTS
All our extracts are made by sun-infusing whole plant material into early harvest virgin cold pressed biodynamic Olive oil. First harvest, unripe Olives yield a beautifully nutrient oil with spectacularly high phenolic content, which stabilises and naturally preserves not only our extracts but also our skin.
In this ancient method of bioactive botanical extraction, we co-infuse all the compositions botanicals together, so they commune and synergise, enhancing each other's potency and bioavailablity.
Each plant component has a specific purpose that is intrinsically linked to other compounds. There is massive evidence now that synergistic whole plant extracts are much more powerful than isolated, single components.
