Returning Fragrances

The Bells (5ml and 10ml perfume oil) -LAUNCH ONLY

Aroma palette is darkly floral and earthy. Highlights include Lily Of The Valley, winter rain, old moss growing on stones, antiqued leather, peru balsam, sweet orange, and church incense.

The Bells is our tribute to the dark season when the nights are at their longest and a hauntingly beautiful stillness seems to perpetually hang in the air, punctuated by the sound of church bells at dusk. The heart of this blend is lily of the valley, a flower associated with the winter season and the holidays during the Victorian era.

This bewitching fragrance centers hinoki wood (Japanese cypress) for its otherworldly yet soothing properties. Here, myrrh incense smoke and soft woods entwine with subtle fruit notes of plum and blueberry honey. This is a forest blend, yet it does not feature any green notes. It dries down to soft soothing woods with touches of plum and honey and wears very close to the skin.

.

Attic Ornaments (5ml perfume oil) -LAUNCH ONLY

Aroma palette is atmospheric, woodsy, and fruity. Highlights include artificial snow, plastic ornaments, metal hangers, dusty pine needles, manger hay, static electricity, and aged pomanders.

This atmospheric holiday blend was inspired by the yearly haul of holiday ornaments from my grandmothers attic in the late 1980s. The boxes that we gleefully brought down for the winter season each year always had a particular smell that spoke of both the holidays that had already passed and the new ones to come. This blend contains the ghosts of Christmas trees past, a quick whiff of artificial snow, the nostalgic plastic smell of ornaments and bits of old toys, the metallic tang of metal hooks, the pleasantly dusty aroma of manger hay, the fruity scent of aged pomanders, and ghostings of electricity wafting off of fabric.

Our ode to The Velveteen Rabbit tale is a bottled trip down memory lane where soft, ozonic, vaguely fruit-tinged, vintage floral notes dance in a melange of aromas both familiar and strange. The anchor of this blend is a soft and well worn childhood plush. Synthetic fur retains notes of vintage lavender and violet from its many launderings, while in the background, a nostalgic whiff of strawberry perfume peeks through. The fruits and florals here are muted and soft.

This is a comforting, airy, “your skin but better” fragrance that wraps the skin like a soft, cozy, patchwork blanket and conjures visions of comforting and day-dreamy childhood moments.
