Layering Oil

A modern way to enhance our successful perfume oil, Exploration: Nº1 — a unique fragrance inspired by the Island’s forests, its diversity and many complexities. 

We launched Field Studies as a way share memorable destinations, moments and experiences via scent. 

Our latest journey is Layering Oil, a series of single note perfumes for you to blend with the Exploration: Nº1. “Layering Oil allows you to create a scent that is unique. It's a modern way to approach the perfume” Laura explains “as the scent is customized by the end user” she adds. 

How to Layer? 

Start with the base, Exploration: Nº1, a fossilized amber and light musk scent to create a mystical base swathed by undertones of cedar wood.

Select your Layering Oil: Bergamot, Yuzu, or Vetiver — or use all three. 

Bergamot and Yuzu, both citric notes, are a lovely way to illuminate the deeper scents that distinguish Exploration: Nº1. 

If the wearer would like to further amplify the wood and amber notes of the perfume, Laura recommends layering with Vetiver, sourced from Haiti; do so gradually - so that it wont conceal the base scent. For Lugo “scent is such an attractive challenge, it’s very personal and subjective” and Layering Oil accentuates this intimate journey.

Oils:

Vetiver sourced from Haiti

Haitian Vetiver has an aroma that is deep, heavy, slightly sweet and resinous, with pronounced woody, earthy, root-like notes and light smoky undertones.

Yuzu

Bright, strong, faintly floral, aromatic citrus with a back-note that becomes a balsamic sweetness in the dry-down

Bergamot

Green, fresh, sweet, mouth-watering aroma, with bright, citrusy top notes; has a somewhat warm, floral aspect that develops in the drydown.
