About Us

OUR HERITAGE

Pure Aromatics Since 1997

Established in 1997, stands as New York's quintessential shop for natural aromatics, including essential oils, absolutes, and enfleurages.

Our steadfast commitment to natural essence means we strictly avoid synthetics in all our offerings. Alongside aromatic oils, we're proud to present an exquisite selection of hydrosols, bespoke botanical perfumes, skincare, haircare, and specialty items like roll-ons, raw incense, and handcrafted frankincense candles.

The Foundation of Purity

Sourcing Philosophy

Global Essence, Artisanal Spirit

Sourced globally, our essential oils come from small artisanal distilleries, selected where plants thrive best, honoring the concept of terroir. This belief in the intimate connection between the land and its yield guides our sourcing, ensuring every scent carries the essence of its origin.

A Quick History

Tracing the Roots of Our Aromatic Journey

1995

Foundational Beginnings

In 1995, I opened Trygvé Fragrances at the Soho Emporium on West Broadway between Spring and Prince Sts. We specialized in Arabic and African Aromatics with a few essential oils and bath/body care.
1996

Our Expansion Story

In 1996, I opened Trygvé Aromatics at 23 Jones Street between Bleecker and West 3rd Sts. This store was ridiculously cute, and we stayed open a crazy 12-12 7 days a week. Our specialty shifted to our own range of very clear and clean beautiful essential oils, and skin and bath care and some perfumes from small companies we liked. Also, some crafts.
1997

A New Chapter

Black Friday we opened Enfleurage at 321 Bleecker Street between Christopher and Grove. We expanded everything, still specializing in beautiful essential oils and strange and wild aromatics from Africa and the Middle East. We made skin and body care from foods in the back and offered it by the oz in our refrigerated case. In addition to the cold bar, we had a blending bar, where we made essential oil blends to order. We also had a local corner, where we sold small handmade skincare from the New York area. These were all phased out over time.

Evolving Legacy

Enfleurage moved to 237 West 13 St, between 7th and 8th/Hudson, at the edge of the Meatpacking. Now in our 13th year at West 13th Street--we continue to specialize in technicolor aromatics--essential oils and some raw incense. We curated our product list down to our favorites, and we make our own luxury line of perfumes, candles, etc. Always all natural, always whole, organic when possible, and terroir matters!
