Welcome to Phoenix Botanicals ✿

About Irina:
A woodland faerie residing in Brooklyn, I am fond of greener pastures! I flutter between the wild fields and the city, and bring some of nature's love back to you.
I’m thrilled about our abundant, wild therapeutic plants, and harvest them mindfully in the gorgeous wild Northeast. Phoenix balms and butters are made with real plants, and are thus very gentle on the skin. All ingredients are listed, and most are baby safe. Naturally and delightfully fragrant - prepared by a discerning nose!

My latest obsession is blending exquisitely wearable natural perfumes, inspired by landscape, story, and emotion.

Apprenticing with local herbalists for several years, and working in ethnobotany research for much of a decade has exposed me to the myriad cultural and healing uses of plants... as well as a yearning to put the knowledge into practice. Spending time in nature, working with the plants, and creating with them is a joy. It's an honor to share my botanical creations with you!

Our name is inspired by that renewed feeling you get spending time in nature - like a Phoenix!
Our CEO is also named Phoenix. This joyful cockatiel oversees all operations, and adds his whistles and bird love to the mix.
