Volatility of notes: why the fragrance changes on the skin
You spritzed your favorite perfume in the morning, but by evening your skin smells like a different ...
Eric Buterbaugh Florals is more than just a niche perfume house. It is the materialized dream of legendary florist Eric Buterbaugh, who for decades enveloped the glamorous world of Hollywood and high fashion with his unparalleled floral compositions. Founded in 2015 in Los Angeles, the brand from the very beginning positioned itself at the very top of the luxury segment, offering not just fragrances, but essences of the most beautiful flowers captured in amber.
The brand's philosophy is simple and brilliant: to transfer the magic of a living, breathing flower into the form of perfume. Each fragrance begins not in a laboratory, but in Buterbaugh's workshop, where he creates a unique floral arrangement. Then, in tandem with the greatest 'noses' of our time, including Alberto Morillas, Marie Salamagne, and Fabrice Pellegrin, this visual and emotional concept is transformed into an olfactory masterpiece.
The success story of Eric Buterbaugh began long before the first bottles appeared. His floral works graced the covers of Vogue, and his clients included Oprah Winfrey, Elton John, Madonna, as well as fashion houses Louis Vuitton and Dior. It is this impeccable taste and deep understanding of the nature of the flower that formed the basis of his perfumery vision. The first step in this direction was the fragrance Virgin Lily of the Valley — a pure, almost sacramental dedication to the delicate lily of the valley, which introduced the world to a completely new approach to floral chords.
Today, the Eric Buterbaugh Florals boutique, located in the famous Waldorf Astoria hotel in Beverly Hills, has become a pilgrimage site for connoisseurs of beauty. Each bottle is a work of art: some adorned with Swarovski crystals, others trimmed with gold leaf, emphasizing the ultra-luxury status and handcrafted work.
The brand's perfume catalog is clearly structured and reflects two main facets of creativity. The Florale collection is an ode to the flower in its pristine beauty. Here you will find hyper-realistic, fresh, and elegant interpretations, such as the sunny Nick's Sunflower or the innocently seductive Maiden Orange Blossom.
The second line, Floral Oud, demonstrates courage and depth. It connects exquisite floral hearts with noble, rich oud, creating powerful, memorable, and sensual compositions. It is in this collection that such iconic hits as Oud Saffron Flower and the opulent Oud Gardenia are born.
Where to start exploring the world of Eric Buterbaugh Florals? The calling card and one of the most popular fragrances has long been Velvet Lavender, created in collaboration with perfumer Harry Fremont. This masterpiece, awarded the prestigious FiFi Award in 2021, reinterprets lavender, making it velvety, honeyed, and incredibly long-lasting.
Equally discussed is Kingston Osmanthus — an exquisite and fruity-floral fragrance that captivates with its sunny aura. And for lovers of luxurious roses, the opulent and spicy Sultry Rose by Honorine Blanc is a must-try. Each of these top fragrances has phenomenal longevity and sillage, which has become the hallmark of the entire house.
You can recognize an Eric Buterbaugh Florals fragrance by its incredible naturalism, high concentration of quality ingredients, and complex but impeccably balanced structure. The brand is not afraid of bright chords, whether it's juicy osmanthus or animalic oud, but presents them with exquisite elegance. This unique style, born at the intersection of floral and perfumery art, has earned it love not only among celebrities but also among strict critics. The victory of Velvet Lavender at the FiFi Awards is direct confirmation of that.
Eric Buterbaugh Florals is a brand for those who seek in perfumery not just a scent, but an emotion, a story, and impeccable quality. It proves that true luxury lies in the ability to capture the fleeting beauty of nature and give it eternal life in a fragrance.
