he composition is created around the ginger lily, also known as a butterfly lily, a Himalayan large-petalled white flower. Growing in harsh high mountains climate, this plant blooms for only a few weeks in the spring time, and each flower lives only for a few hours, what makes it difficult, almost impossible, to extract the oil. An IFF pioneering researcher, Dr. Braja Mookherjee, found a way to analyse the oil structure using the ‘living-flower’ technique, and to copy the fragrance of the ginger lily, what enabled the industrial production.Cabotineis the first perfume which contains ginger lily in its composition.
