Butterfly Thai Perfume The Secret Collection Gift Set (6 x 2ml)

Butterfly Thai Perfume build their scents around ingredients you will not find in a European perfume house — agarwood, galangal, Thai mango, benzoin. The Secret Collection puts six of them in one box, 2 ml of each so you can wear each in turn and find out which one is actually you, instead of gambling on a full bottle.

It also makes an unusually good gift. Most people already own a perfume; almost nobody owns six Thai ones.

The six scents

• Agarwood & Benzoin — white flowers in an imagined forest of fragrant wood. The luxurious, composed one.
• Cape Lily & Pear — fruit and flowers together, bright and youthful, the kind of scent people ask you about.
• Tobacco Rose — drawn from a Burmese perfumery tradition passed down for centuries. Dark, warm and a little bewitching.
• Galanga — galangal from the Thai kitchen, turned into something clean and sharp. The fresh, sporty one.
• Golden Mango — named for the legendary Thai mango so good a man is said to have sold his wife for it. Sweet and hard to put down.
• Jasmine Angel — the white flower that opens in the morning. Pure and alive, like walking through a jasmine garden in early sun.

How to wear it

Each vial holds 2 ml — roughly 20 to 30 sprays, so you get several proper wears out of every scent rather than one quick sniff. Spray on the pulse points — wrists, the base of the neck — and give it a few minutes before you judge it. A perfume smells different on you than it does in the air. Try one scent a day and you will know your favourite inside a week.
