Onder De Linde

Onder de Linde is a joyous and uplifting fragrance that captures the fresh beauty of early summer in the Dutch countryside, inspired by Vermeer’s iconic painting The Milkmaid. Dr. S. Drosopoulos, drawn to the serene and simple elegance of the countryside setting, sought to recreate the feeling of a summer day under the linden trees in full bloom.

The stars of this fragrance are lilac and linden blossom, two delicate flowers that evoke the promise of warm days and the freshness of nature. What makes these notes particularly magical is that there are no natural extracts available for them, unlike more traditional flowers like rose or jasmine. Instead, Dr. Drosopoulos meticulously reconstructed these blooms using aroma molecules, achieving a realistic and captivating scent that feels like a true celebration of summer’s arrival.
