Fifteen profiles in a sealed aluminium bottle, and fourteen of them are named after hotels: Marriott, Sheraton, Westin, Holiday Inn, InterContinental, Four Seasons, Ritz Carlton, Kempinski, Shangri-La, Sofitel, Pullman, Grand Hyatt, Vienna and New Hilton. The fifteenth is Ice Age, which is not a property at all — a cold, clean, mineral scent that reads like air in a very still room. It is the one profile in this range with nothing to compare it to, and it is the reason a lot of people buy from this list rather than the wider twenty-four.
This is a shorter edit than our other Namste bottle, and deliberately so. Where a twenty-four-profile list is for finding a match to a hotel you remember, fifteen is the working shortlist: the properties whose scent signatures people actually ask for by name, with the odd one out kept in. Every profile is priced individually, because they are separate formulations and some cost more to compose than others.
The oil goes neat into the reservoir of a cold-air or nebulising scent machine, of the kind stocked in our humidifier and diffuser range, and the unit meters it out. If you plan to use a water-based ultrasonic diffuser instead, read its manual first — some manufacturers permit aroma oil in the tank and some specify essential oil alone. Aluminium keeps daylight off the contents entirely, which matters more than a handsome bottle for something that lives in a stockroom between refills.
A hundred millilitres is roughly two thousand drops. In a machine running through opening hours that is a trial rather than a supply, so treat this size as the way to hear a profile in the actual room before committing — the same oil runs to 500ml once you have decided. The scent behaves differently in a stone lobby than in a carpeted suite, and no description survives that.
