Perfumer Maria McElroy: "This perfume initially recalls the quintessential American road trip. The memory of our family crossing the Mojave Desert; tumbleweeds rolling over an expanse of desert under fast moving clouds tinted deep purple. We would drive for hours, the road- sun bleached and lonely, but for a passing cowboy on his horse. As a teenager, the road trips would have me reciting Jack Kerouac lines; the beat poet’s words from On The Road, a soundtrack to my daydreaming in the long hours in the car, as it sped down the deserted two lane highway leaving a trail of dusty sand.Several decades later upon arriving in Morocco, I found the terroir reminiscent of my American Western roots. As I journeyed further into the Sahara desert, I was overwhelmed with its vastness and poignant beauty of the velvet evening sky illuminated by stars so bright I swear I could grasp them in my hand. I imagine wandering into the endless desert; its violet shadows and silence, its sand and sweet flower aroma swirling and lifting to cloak me with mystery and nostalgia."American Perfumer founder Dave Kern: "It’s with great pleasure that we present our 2nd Limited Edition, "Desert Flower," with our good friend Maria McElroy of aroma M and House of Cherry Bomb. Made for us at parfum strength, "Desert Flower" is not only as vast and soaring as the landscape it evokes, but also intimately complex and deeply satisfying. A perfume lovers perfume, "Desert Flower" is as smart and thoughtful as Maria herself, and a value statement for the contemporary chypre.""Desert Flower is composed exclusively of rare, vintage Arabian oils, among which are Lina (Desert Flower) and  Flower of Honor (Desert Flower)." -Brand Website.
