Juicy Watermelon, Green Rind, Sun-warmed Soil
Did you know that watermelons are about 92% water, making them one of nature’s most hydrating fruits? Our aromatic exploration of watermelon starts with juicy top notes of ripe watermelon, crisp cucumber and crushed leaves, selected to mimic the fruit’s thirstquenching qualities. The bright middle notes — green rind and pear blossom — add an elegant and uplifting touch. Base notes of soil accord, lush oakmoss and woods are a grounded and balancing addition that transport you straight to the garden. Plant the box and the seed infused packaging will grow sweet watermelons.

Did you know rhubarb plants can live for up to 60 years? The sturdy and treasured vegetable offers a tart and sharp top note that blends seamlessly with dewy greens and sparkling citrus. A bouquet of soft white florals and rose petals add an elegant edge. Finished with a warm base of musk, golden amber and vetiver to ground and envelop you. Plant the box and the seed infused packaging will grow tart rhubarb.
