Let’s admit it—life can be hectic. Capturing a moment to center our minds has never been more important.

That’s why we say Namaskar—a traditional Hindi greeting—to Lotus Santal, our newest bath, body and home fragrance collection. Inspired by the many benefits of meditation, mindfulness and yoga practice, and rooted in the rich traditions of ancient Eastern cultures, Lotus Santal celebrates the essence of each one of us.

It does so through its warm, harmonious, gently evocative fragrance; the uncommon ingredients it features to enhance its users health and environmental well-being; as well as through the tactile designs—on both packaging and products—to delight the senses.

Lotus Santal is a lulling hush that smoothes the rhythms of the day. Embracing you in a silence that grounds, calms, focuses. Sultry notes of cocoa orchid and red lotus are swirled through layers of plum wood, patchouli and spicy clove. Finished with a warm, intoxicating breath of creamy amber and sandalwood that restores you to a tranquil aromatic center.

Key ingredients of Lotus Santal include:

Lotus flower: A water lily with deep sacred significance to Hindu and Buddhist faiths, symbolizing purity, peace, enlightenment and rebirth. In traditional medicine, Indian blue lotus is known for its calming, skin-softening, anti-inflammatory and tonic properties.

Amaranth seed: Also known as love-lies-bleeding, this plant is frequently used as a source of food in India and South America. Its seeds contain high levels of nutrients to help restore smoothness and moisture to skin.

Turmeric: An ancient spice related to ginger, turmeric is a powerful anti-inflammatory used in traditional Chinese and Indian medicine to treat digestive and liver problems, skin diseases and wounds, and to purify the blood. In skin care, turmeric is regenerative, protecting skin from sun damage and stimulating healing.
