{"title":"Thistle Perfume","description":"\u003cp\u003eThistle carries the green, slightly peppery character of the flowering plant itself — a note that is herbaceous and distinctly botanical, with an underlying sharpness that feels fresh and almost aromatic. Unlike softer florals, thistle brings structure: a dry, slightly spiced quality that commands attention rather than whispers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn fragrance composition, thistle perfume sits at the intersection of green and floral. It lends an earthy sophistication to compositions, often pairing with woods, resins, and other herbals to create layered, contemplative scents. There is something quietly wild about it — a note that suggests outdoors, gardens in late summer, and natural landscapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThistle fragrances suit those who prefer their scents with backbone and personality. These are not comforting or immediately sweet; they are engaging, slightly challenging, and deeply memorable. Expect longevity and presence — thistle does not fade quietly into the background.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"imaginary-authors-fox-in-the-flowerbed-edp","title":"Imaginary Authors Fox in the Flowerbed Eau de Parfum","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFragrance Family:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFloral Amber\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNotes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJasmine, Tulips, Frankincense, Wildflower Honey, Pink Peppercorns, Silver Thistle, Alpine Air\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConcentration:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEau de Parfum\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOccasion:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eWearing this floral wonder will amplify the beauty in everything.

I think it’s unfair, because they are bountiful and have many healthful properties – like inula or nettle, for instance. I’ve never had the heart to pull out the wild inula that grows in my garden in the heart of the maquis.” Mal-Aimé is a tribute to a friend. The essence used by Marc-Antoine Corticchiato is distilled by Stéphane and Alexandre Acquarone, the sons of Lucien Acquarone, “my companion from the maquis and the bush, from Corsica to Vietnam by way of Madagascar and La Réunion”, the perfumer explains. An engineer specialised in botanical extraction equipment, “Lucien was a wizard who could obtain the best of a plant’s fragrance without altering its original scent, always as close as possible to nature.” He was also an adventurer, “who could decide overnight to embark on some crazy project on the other side of the world”.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith Marc-Antoine Corticchiato, he shared, along with his love of good food, wine and perfume plants, a fondness for inula, “a plant with a very special scent, though it is rejected by all. For a great many years, we talked about introducing the uncommon fragrance of this ‘weed’ to the world. But he left too early.” Mal-Aimé, a fragrance gorged with inula essential oil extracted by his sons, is “a nod to Lucien. Lucien, who must be having a laugh up there, with a glass in his hand and a twinkle in his eyes – eyes as green as the essence of inula, and as sparkling as his favorite champagne.” (Marc-Antoine Corticchiato)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMade in France\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Parfum d'Empire","offers":[{"title":"50ml","offer_id":46517226176664,"sku":"3760302990436","price":235.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"1ml Sample","offer_id":46517226209432,"sku":"PDE-SAMPLE-10","price":7.5,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0590\/4492\/1496\/files\/MAL-AIME.jpg?v=1762294084"}],"url":"https:\/\/noahgrooming.co.nz\/collections\/thistle-perfume.oembed","provider":"NOAH","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
