This fragrance has been refined and REFORMULATED as of 2024.

An herbaceous fougère and chypre fragrance hybrid with a crisp, clean opening of aromatic herbs and swaying lavender fields, illuminated by moon beams and laid atop the dark, briny, and animalic earthen aromas of patchouli, oakmoss, and ancient resins.

A room with velvet ochre walls,
The sweet dampness of secrecy,
The Rise precluded by the Fall;
As twists of wrists bind you to me.

FEATURED NOTES: bergamot · geranium leaf · lavender · lavender absolute · clary sage · patchouli · oakmoss · frankincense · labdanum

IMPRESSIONS: the crisp smell of dewy, dark green fronds · swaths of moonlit lavender · the barbed, silver underside of sage leaves · damp fertile soil and the earthen musk of plush moss beds

THE RITUAL: Scoop out the desired amount of this scented balm and gently warm it between your fingers before applying it to pulse points (wrists, the crook of the elbow, the nape of the neck, the décoleté) or wherever you please. Solid perfumes perform best when in contact with heat and do wonderfully on warm summer days, or when applied under the collar of a shirt when the temperature drops. Those with facial hair may consider working a small amount into their beards if desired, as well.

10 g in an amethyst glass pot nested in a gift box.
