Our Story

Saint d’Ici is a botanical perfumery located in Cape Town, South Africa. We craft our perfumes using pure botanical ingredients such as absolutes, CO2 extracts, tinctures, and essential oils, which are central to our creative process. Our approach to botanical perfume draws inspiration from ancient traditions, timeless literature, and tales of exploration. The anthropology of scent and the rich rituals of various cultures across the African continent continually provide us with valuable insights into natural botanical practices, fueling our inspiration.

We source our botanical ingredients from small-scale farmers throughout Africa, prioritizing authenticity by obtaining them from their native regions whenever possible.
Each bottle of perfume is meticulously handcrafted, from the planting, cultivation, and harvesting of the ingredients to the blending, filling, and packaging. We follow an intentional and uncompromising way of life, offering a reconnection to nature through pure botanical ingredients.

Saint d’Ici is a tribute to nature in all its beauty and complexity.
