“Mimosa is like an emergence into yellow velvet. A multisensory experience.” - Daniela Andrier. It is the smell of the tree in full bloom, late in summer perhaps in the South of France. Powdery, floral, with a yellow-velvet softness that is almost tactile. Star Anise Oil and Mandarin Essence highlight a unique tenderness, while Rose Absolute gives a radiant impression. Mimosa subverts the traditional interpretation of its main ingredient, layering it with new meaning. There is a tension between the certain familiarity of the memory with the disruptive reinterpretation of the infusion process. It is incredibly present yet impossible to grasp; a blurring of the everyday and the imaginary.
