An open flower, held among green leaves. Hibiscus draws our attention to the small changes that happen within a day, and to the quiet rhythm of flowers opening and fading. You can view our full ingredient directory here.

Hibiscus flowers open outwards from a central column, their broad petals creating a shape that feels both delicate and expressive. Some blooms are short-lived, while new flowers continue to appear over the season.

At Frosei, our interpretation brings a soft floral character together with green bamboo and the warmth of cedarwood.

In China, Hibiscus syriacus is called mù jǐn (木槿). Its flowers appear in some of the country’s earliest poetry, where their beauty is compared to the face of a beloved companion.

Each flower lasts only a short time, but fresh buds keep opening through summer and into autumn. For Frosei, this is what makes hibiscus so compelling: return to the same plant tomorrow, and a different flower will be waiting.
