In a unique celebration of Singapore’s 60th year of independence, fragrance house dsm-firmenich has partnered with the Singapore Botanic Gardens to unveil Singapore Eco Orchid — the nation’s only SG60 commemorative fragrance. This exclusive scent honours not only six decades of nationhood but also commemorates two key milestones: the 10th anniversary of the Botanic Gardens’ UNESCO World Heritage Site status and the 30th anniversary of its beloved National Orchid Garden.
Inspired by the Vandachostylis Fuchs Ocean Spray orchid, a delicate bloom discovered within the Garden, this fragrance was carefully designed to encapsulate the spirit of Singapore — resilient, elegant, and ever-evolving.
“Creating a fragrance inspired by the Gardens’ orchids allowed us to capture the essence of Singapore – resilient, elegant, and ever-evolving,” shared Levenza Toh, Vice President of Perfumery for Southeast Asia, Japan & Korea at dsm-firmenich.
What makes this scent truly groundbreaking is the use of NaturePrint® — an eco-conscious, high-tech method of capturing the “breath” of the flower without cutting or damaging it. The result? A symphony of bright citrus, green dew-like notes, gentle floral accords of orchid, muguet, and rose, followed by creamy vanilla and musk. It’s both refreshing and grounding — much like the Singapore story.
Bringing Fragrance Into Everyday Wellness
To bring this sensorial experience into everyday moments, OSIM has integrated the Singapore Eco Orchid scent into their wellness tech products. Whether through their uMist Aroma Humidifier or the scent cartridges for their uDream Pro 5-Senses Well-Being Chair, this collaboration ensures that Singaporeans can literally pause and breathe in national pride and serenity in their daily lives.
“By infusing the Singapore Eco Orchid into our wellness products, we bring the essence of our nation into everyday living,” said Lynn Tan, Deputy CEO of OSIM. “This scent creates space to pause and reflect, while supporting what we stand for—helping people feel good, stress less, and sleep better.”
More than just a fragrance, Singapore Eco Orchid is a multisensory reflection of how far we’ve come as a nation — and a beautiful reminder to take pride in our roots while embracing the future.
The fragrance is now available at OSIM outlets islandwide and online.
