Hedgehog Body Butter

Protective Barrier Cream with Parfum Concentrate

 

HEDGEHOG is a restorative barrier cream inspired by the classical Edwardian cold cream tradition and reinterpreted through modern dermatologic insight.


At its core lies a careful integration of three historic pillars of skin protection: lanolin, rose water, and a curated blend of nutrient-dense botanical oils. Babassu, baobab, moringa, apricot kernel, and safflower oils were selected for their non-comedogenic profiles and their natural abundance of essential fatty acids, tocopherols, and antioxidant compounds that support barrier repair, antioxidant defense, and environmental resilience.


This lipid architecture is reinforced with mango, kokam, and shea butters, chosen for their ability to cushion the skin, reduce transepidermal water loss, calm visible dryness, and provide a supple, non-greasy finish. The result is a structured lamellar cream that restores without heaviness—protective yet refined.


HEDGEHOG is not merely functional. It is perfumed.


A chypre-oriental parfum concentrate, executed in the classical tradition of the great French houses, unfolds upon application. Oakmoss, labdanum, and patchouli form the deep chypre spine, enriched by benzoin and ylang-ylang, illuminated by rose, jasmine, and orris butter, and lifted with bergamot and black currant. Lavender and Egyptian geranium lend aromatic clarity, while cardamom introduces a subtle spice warmth that enhances the resinous floral structure. A trace of ambergris imparts warmth and quiet diffusion.


The experience is immediate:

 

  • Initial plush contact

  • Gentle absorption

  • A subtle resinous sweetness that settles close to the skin

 


Designed for hands, neck, décolleté, and areas under environmental stress, HEDGEHOG restores suppleness while leaving the skin sealed, calm, and luminous—never greasy.


This is not a body cream.

It is a perfumed barrier ritual.
