In the valleys of Anatolia, Turkey, the harvesting of Rosa Damascena the ‘Queen of Flowers’ begins at dawn. The roses are kept in the shade until reaching the copper distillation stills. Once transformed, the rose oil contains a concentrate of all the fragrance components of thousands of fresh flowers.
Its voluptuous scent, both green and vibrant yet also jammy with notes of exotic and red fruits, had us under its spell from the beginning.
Ostens was born from our desire to create beautiful fragrances, using the world's finest ingredients in their purest form.
Inspired by the beauty of raw materials, we asked our perfumers only one thing: to use those ingredients as the jumping-off point to start their creativity. We asked them to let their imaginations run free. There was no limit to their creativity – no restrictive creative brief, no specific gender, no costs limitations.
The results of this are our beautiful fragrances, each an authentic expression of talent and creativity unleashed.
