Winter Limited Edition Sample Pack - 5 Fragrances

Tue, 24 Nov 2009 03:18:22 -0500

$5.00
Try all five of our new Autumn fragrances with this convenient sample pack. Includes:

— SNOW BUNNY —
A snow bunny is a fluffy little white rabbit hopping around in the snow wiggling her little pink nose or it can be a hot babe in a puffy jacket and snow boots. Whatever your interpretation, this perfume captures the essence of winter fluffiness and cuteness. Silky-Spun Cotton Candy, Candied Fruits, a lick of Peppermint and a White Musk that's as pure as the driven snow!

— MISTLETOE —
Mistletoe is an odd plant, a parasite that likes to grow on oak and apple trees, with leather-like leaves and white waxen berries. Many mysteries surround this plant in myth and folklore and the tradition of kissing under the mistletoe is still alive today. Mistletoe does not have a fragrance and this perfume is an abstract interpretation of this lovely plant. With notes of Sweet Almond, Vetiver, Heliotrope, Bayberry, Oak Branches, Creamy Vanilla, and Winter Mosses.

— POMANDER —
Orange and Clove Pomanders are so much fun to make and give off such a lovely scent around the holidays. This perfume captures the essence of a clove-spiked orange pomander without being cloying or potpourri-like. Notes of Blood Orange, Sweet Orange, Mandarin, Orris Root, Allspice, Clove, Sugar Crystals, Black Currant, and Christmas Lilies.

— FROSTED FIG —
The aroma of a bowl of Juicy, Overripe Black Figs dusted with Fine Snow, Fig Leaves and Twigs, Red Rooibos Tea, Glazed Pears, and a touch of Spice.

— YULETIDE —
In commemoration of the Winter Solstice this blend includes every resin, wood, spice and herb used in Yuletide incenses and anointing oils: Myrrh, Frankincense, Benzoin Styrax, Sandalwood, Pine, Cedarwood, Juniper Berries, Cinnamon Leaf, and Bitter Orange. Can be used to anoint yourself, candles and in any Winter Solstice rite.

Tropical Collection - Parfum

Sat, 21 Nov 2009 01:15:28 -0500

$15.00
Allow yourself to be carried away on a gentle breeze to a tropical island paradise.
Please pick one of the following:

— BANANA BLOSSOM —
Are we the only ones that think Jasmine smells a little like Bananas? What a fun note to play with! We started with a true Banana note and mixed it with Jasmine Absolute and other tropical fruits and florals for an unexpected summer blend.

— HELLO DELICIOUS! —
Hello Delicious! A juicy summer fragrance for cheeky gals who like playing in the sun. Part floral, part citrus with a creamy Sandalwood and White Musk base. Notes include: Pink Jasmine, White Jasmine, Tart Lime, Pink Grapefruit and French Vanilla. Fun, flirty, and just a bit fresh.

— MISS LUSCIOUS —
This blend was created for a friend of ours who is on her honeymoon right now. This scent is summer in a bottle! Notes include: Pink Pepper, Black Pepper, Tuberose, Coconut Cream, Starfruit, Tangerine and Sandalwood.

— SKY PLUMERIA —
Our amazing friend Sky inspired this perfume. She loves plumerias and was looking for a perfume more reminiscent to the true scent of Plumeria. We combined Waterlily, Gardenia, Jasmine and Tahitian Vanilla notes and a hint of citrus with Plumeria notes. The results were luscious! You'll feel like you're in Maui wearing a Plumeria Lei!

— SOL TROPICAL —
This fragrance marries the sunny citrus zest of Liquid Sunshine with the lush creamy dreaminess of Tropical Paradise. This is a luscious, refreshing scent reminiscent of a walk though a tropical jungle leading to a secluded waterfall. Top notes of Citrus, Juicy Tropical Fruits, Tropical Flowers. Heart notes of Coconut, Vanilla, Jasmine. Base notes of Sandalwood, Musk and White Amber.

— STARGAZER LILY —
One of our most exciting scents—not for the meek or demure! Lush, rich and exotic is the heady scent of Stargazer Lily. Aside from their exceptional beauty, these hybrid oriental lilies exude the most intoxicating aroma, quite similar to that of the Ylang Ylang flower, also from Asia. Although the Ylang Ylang flower is not a lily, we used generous amounts of it in this blend to mimic the delicious scent of Stargazer Lily. The top notes are Muguet and Mimosa, with heart notes of Jasmine and Ylang Ylang and base notes of Sandalwood, Vetiver and Balsam Peru.

— TIARE FLOWER —
The Tiare flower is a creamy, star-shaped blossom belonging to the gardenia family. All over Polynesia, but especially Tahiti, Tiare flowers are picked and soaked in coconut oil for 15 days to extract their delicate aroma. The fragrant oil that is extracted through this method is called Monoï and is used in perfumes, cosmetics, body oils and soaps. Top notes of Tiare, Gardenia, Ylang Ylang with heart notes of Coconut, Tahitian Vanilla, French Vanilla in a base of Sandalwood and Ambergris.

— TROPICAL PARADISE —
Tropical scents happen to be our favorite! We had a hard time choosing which ones to add to this blend but we narrowed it down to tangy top notes of Lime, Papaya, Pineapple, and Hibiscus. Heart notes of Hawaiian Plumeria, Jasmine, and Hawaiian Ginger. Creamy base notes of Coconut Cream, Sandalwood and Vanilla.

Please select one of the following:

— KULFI —
One of our bestsellers! If you've ever had the pleasure of eating Kulfi Ice Cream, then you know what heaven is: Rich, creamy and sweet with a hint of Indian spice. Top note of Cardamom. Heart notes of Vanilla Bean, Coconut Cream and Saffron Threads layered over a base note of Mysore Sandalwood. The saffron oil was hand-infused just for this formula.

— RHUBARB —
To get an idea of this scent, picture a pot of freshly chopped, tart Rhubarb Stalks, sprinkled with Sugar and Lemon Juice sitting on a stove, just about to boil. Equal parts green, tart, sweet and sugary with a hint of citrus. Delicious!

— SUGAR BLOSSOM —
Dripping with sugary goodness, juicy fruit and delicate blossoms. Top notes include: Cotton Candy, Bergamot, Orange, and Raspberry, Middle Notes of : Vanilla, Caramel, and Powder and Base Notes of: White Musk and Amber.

— WINE-GLAZED PEARS —
This is the aroma of peeled Bartlet Pears simmering in a pot with rich Red Wine, delectable spices and plenty of sugar. Made with a hand-blended Red Wine accord that is out of this world. The Pear note is fresh, juicy and tart. The Red Wine note is deep and rich, anchoring the scent. The spices linger but don't overpower. This is truly a unique scent you won't find anywhere else.

GLACIERS Litmited Edition Winter Fragrance - Unisex / All-Natural - Sample

Thu, 19 Nov 2009 15:28:32 -0500

$1.50
We admit the idea of offering a GLACIERS perfume started as a joke among the band members. But after taking a closer look, we realized that a product like this has never existed; a product that stimulates both your olfactory and auditory senses. We think you'll be as intrigued as we were!

This unisex, all-natural blend is meant to bring to mind, images of the Pacific Ocean, a temperamental beast that can go from quiet and calm to thunderous and crashing at a moment's notice. This blend is a celebration of life and art, of nature and music, poetry and destiny.

Includes notes of:
Japanese Yuzu, Coriander, Bergamot, Grapefruit, Fir, Spruce, Spearmint, Sandalwood, Cedarwood, Cypress, Hemp and Black Pepper.

A little about the band: GLACIERS is a four-piece, post-rock, instrumental band hailing from the San Francisco Bay Area. They've been written about extensively on music blogs. Here is an excerpt from www.rocksellout.com:

"...[GLACIERS] is full of sonic textures and crashing atmospheres with just the right amount of down time as well as taking the crescendo all the way to space before it breaks into blasting rocket engines. They also find a good groove and jam it out until the amps bleed."

The full size fragrance includes a digital download of the GLACIERS album, "And The Sea Won The Battle"!

— A NOTE ABOUT OUR PERFUME —
We create all of our perfumes from scratch, developing each formula in our studio. Our formulas are complex blends containing various ingredients such as Pure Essential Oils, Fragrance Oils, Absolutes, Resins, Concretes, CO2s, Extracts and handmade Tinctures and Macerations. We let each formula age for a few weeks to stabilize the ingredients. A lot of love, patience and attention are put into every blend!

We never pour stock fragrance oils into a bottle and label it as our own. The bulk of our perfumes are made from Pure Essential Oils supplemented with a few drops of Fragrance Oil when necessary. Even for straightforward scents like Honeysuckle, Gardenia or Jasmine, we create our own blend based on our perception of the true flower fragrance.

Please convo us if you have any questions.
Thanks for looking!

Single Floral Collection - Parfum

Wed, 21 Oct 2009 15:47:00 -0400

$15.00
If you love single florals you've come to the right place! We've got a serious collection of single florals from light and petal-soft to rich and sultry. And best of all, they're all layerable. Please pick one of the following:

— CHERRY BLOSSOM —
A straightforward scent with crisp Cherry Blossom top notes to which we've added Sandalwood, Bergamot, and Rosewood essential oils to to liven things up.

— GARDENIA —
This perfume contains a rich bouquet of Sandalwood, Vanilla, Orange and Neroli Essential Oils and a luscious Gardenia Fragrance Oil. A heady, exotic, and indulgent blend for gardenia lovers or anyone who wants to discover the amazing love-attracting qualities of the gardenia flower.

— HONEYSUCKLE —
A delicious light floral with green notes. A true spring scent that is fresh and uplifting without being too sweet. The top notes are: Honeysuckle and Bergamot. The heart notes are Jasmine, Rose, Neroli and Narcissus. The base note is Ylang Ylang.

— JASMINE —
Jasmine is probably the most prized and beloved flower of all time. An exotic, indulgent and rich aroma. The blend contains several types of Jasmine Essential and Fragrance Oils as well as some Sandalwood and Amber to deepen and round out the scent.

— NEROLI —
Neroli is the flower of the Bitter Orange tree. It's an amazingly refreshing and enticing scent. It has been used for centuries in Hungary Water as well as in many other perfumes and colognes. This perfume contains Neroli Essential Oil along with Orange, Lemon, Patchouli and White Musk notes to create a multi-dimentional, uplifting scent. (Also available as an All-Natural blend.)

— STARGAZER LILY —
One of our most exciting scents—not for the meek or demure! Lush, rich and exotic is the heady scent of Stargazer Lily. Aside from their exceptional beauty, these hybrid oriental lilies exude the most intoxicating aroma, quite similar to that of the Ylang Ylang flower, also from Asia. Although the Ylang Ylang flower is not a lily, we used generous amounts of it in this blend to mimic the delicious scent of Stargazer Lily. The top notes are Muguet and Mimosa, with heart notes of Jasmine and Ylang Ylang and base notes of Sandalwood, Vetiver and Balsam Peru. (Also available as an All-Natural blend.)

— TIARE FLOWER —
The Tiare flower is a creamy, star-shaped blossom belonging to the gardenia family. All over Polynesia, but especially Tahiti, Tiare flowers are picked and soaked in coconut oil for 15 days to extract their delicate aroma. The fragrant oil that is extracted through this method is called Monoï and is used in perfumes, cosmetics, body oils and soaps. Top notes of Tiare, Gardenia, Ylang Ylang with heart notes of Coconut, Tahitian Vanilla, French Vanilla in a base of Sandalwood and Ambergris.

— YELLOW ROSE —
This is not your grandmother's rose perfume! Yellow roses are much fresher and fruitier than red roses. If you love the peach-like scent of yellow roses then you will love this perfume. Crisp top notes of Peach, Honeysuckle, and Lemon give in to heart notes of Rose and Vanilla, mellowing out to base notes of Oakmoss and Amber. Tart and delicious yet soft and alluring. (Also available as an All-Natural blend.)

Winter 09 Limited Edition Collection - Eau de Toilette

Mon, 21 Sep 2009 22:24:30 -0400

$15.00
It's starting to feel like winter here in Northern California! Time for hot cocoa, snuggling next to the fire and trekking into the mountains for a snow adventure! Introducing our 2009 Winter Limited Edition Collection. There are five fragrances to choose from. They are all very different from one another yet can be layered and combined for unique results.

— SNOW BUNNY —
A snow bunny is a fluffy little white rabbit hopping around in the snow wiggling her little pink nose or it can be a hot babe in a puffy jacket and snow boots. Whatever your interpretation, this perfume captures the essence of winter fluffiness and cuteness. Silky-Spun Cotton Candy, Candied Fruits, a lick of Peppermint and a White Musk that's as pure as the driven snow!

— MISTLETOE —
Mistletoe is an odd plant, a parasite that likes to grow on oak and apple trees, with leather-like leaves and white waxen berries. Many mysteries surround this plant in myth and folklore and the tradition of kissing under the mistletoe is still alive today. Mistletoe does not have a fragrance and this perfume is an abstract interpretation of this lovely plant. With notes of Sweet Almond, Vetiver, Heliotrope, Bayberry, Oak Branches, Creamy Vanilla, and Winter Mosses.

— POMANDER —
Orange and Clove Pomanders are so much fun to make and give off such a lovely scent around the holidays. This perfume captures the essence of a clove-spiked orange pomander without being cloying or potpourri-like. Notes of Blood Orange, Sweet Orange, Mandarin, Orris Root, Allspice, Clove, Sugar Crystals, Black Currant, and Christmas Lilies.

— FROSTED FIG —
The aroma of a bowl of Juicy, Overripe Black Figs dusted with Fine Snow, Fig Leaves and Twigs, Red Rooibos Tea, Glazed Pears, and a touch of Spice.

— YULETIDE —
In commemoration of the Winter Solstice this blend includes every resin, wood, spice and herb used in Yuletide incenses and anointing oils: Myrrh, Frankincense, Benzoin Styrax, Sandalwood, Pine, Cedarwood, Juniper Berries, Cinnamon Leaf, and Bitter Orange. Can be used to anoint yourself, candles and in any Winter Solstice rite.

The Musk Collection - Body Oils

Tue, 01 Sep 2009 13:25:15 -0400

$15.00
We were fortunate enough to find a supplier of exquisite African musks. Although they are called musks, they are completely free of animal ingredients. These musks can be worn as personal perfumes or layering notes. They are all unisex.

When most people think of musk they think of a musty, animalistic scent. We find that nothing could be further from the truth. Musks are clean, light and can be subtle (if worn with restraint.) Musks blend very well with your body chemistry and linger for hours. They become more intense as your body temperature rises. Always start with a little and if you would like a stronger scent, apply a little more. A little goes a long way!!

Please select one of the following:

— African Green Musk —
A lush, exotic green, watery musk. Clean, with plant and water notes.

— Black Musk —
This is the deepest, darkest, most exotic and ethnic smelling musk. Filled with spice and incense notes.

— China Musk —
A very light white musk with subtle water and floral notes. Smells like a popular fragrance called Rain or China Rain. Very clean and light.

— Egyptian Musk —
One of the most famous musks, this one is our favorite. It smells great on everyone but especially boys. This musk is light and clean but with that unmistakable exotic Egyptian quality. Über-sexy!!

— Honey Musk —
Smells slightly like honey but very heavy on the resins, incense and spice.

— Indian Musk —
A spicy, sultry musk filled with incense notes. Smells like an Indian bazaar!

— Moroccan Musk —
A very powdery, incency, exotic musk.

— Nigerian Musk —
A very unique, green, watery musk with ocean notes. Smells vibrant and alive, like a tropical rainstorm!

— Red Egyptian Musk —
This red musk is very strong and smells slightly fruity. Youthful and sexy.

— Vanilla Musk —
The perfect marriage of vanilla and musk. It has all of the qualities of white musk but with the added exotic creaminess of vanilla. Yummy!

— White Musk —
The quintessential white musk! This one is used as a base in many perfumes all over the world. It's the lightest, cleanest and subtlest of all the musks. This is a very, very sexy scent! A true classic.

— White Musk + Floral Notes —
Smells like white musk but a little stronger and has floral and fruit notes added. Smells like that famous drugstore musk we all wore in the 80s. This scent is sure to bring back old memories.

Wed, 19 Aug 2009 00:10:32 -0400

$15.00
Finally, a collection of colognes just for men! We've based these colognes on men in their favorite environments. Every man knows his element! Are you a Seafaring Man or a Forest Man? Do you enjoy the hot desert climate or the fresh mountain air? With 5 colognes to choose from, every type of man is covered. Please pick one of the following:

— MOUNTAIN MAN —
A refreshing blend reminiscent of that crisp, clean mountain air. Mountain Men love the snow, rock-climbing, backpacking, and pushing themselves to the limit. They are high achievers and love being at the top. How's the view up there? With notes of Atlas Cedarwood, Rosewood, Sweetgrass, Bonfire Smoke, handmade Oak Leaf Tincture, and a touch of Frankincense.

— FOREST MAN —
A scintillating blend of fresh conifers and forest herbs. Forest Men love being outdoors, camping, swimming in the river, chopping wood and growing beards. They don't mind spending time alone and often fantasize building their own home (perhaps a log cabin.) With notes of Scotch Pine, Douglas Fir, California Coastal Redwood, Cypress, Dirt and Cedarwood.

— DESERT MAN —
A subtle blend of sagebrush and arid landscape notes. The desert promises glorious sunrises and sunsets attracting a dreamer known as the Desert Man. He enjoys the quiet solitude of the desert where he lets his imagination roam free. The warm desert wind carries away any troubles or regrets. Desert Men are adventurous and free-thinkers. They enjoy extremes and unpredictability. With notes of Sandalwood, Sagebrush, Coyote Bush, White Musk, Myrrh and Desert Grasses.

— SEAFARING MAN —
An exhilarating blend of sea spray and sea mosses. Seafaring men love being on water. They love to sail, swim, canoe, and fish. They sometimes become fishermen, living on a boat and not seeing land for days saying they are perfectly content being married to the sea. Seafaring Men love the ocean's temperamental nature: One minute she's glassy and calm and the next she's tumbling and crashing. With notes of Ocean, Sea Moss, Bergamot, Lime and Ambergris.

— EXOTIC MAN —
A sultry blend of exotic spices, tobacco and black musk. Exotic Man enjoys fine cigars and aged rum. He loves to travel to exotic places in search of sumptuous luxuries. Exotic Man gets bored easily and is always looking for new adventures. He collects exotic artifacts from his travels and enjoys reading stories about the spice trade. With notes of Cardamom, Clove and Nutmeg, Tobacco Leaves, Warm Vanilla, Bay Rum and Myrrh.

Tropical Collection - Eau de Toilette

Tue, 28 Jul 2009 00:36:46 -0400

$15.00
Allow yourself to be carried away on a gentle breeze to a tropical island paradise.
Please pick one of the following:

— BANANA BLOSSOM —
Are we the only ones that think Jasmine smells a little like Bananas? What a fun note to play with! We started with a true Banana note and mixed it with Jasmine Absolute and other tropical fruits and florals for an unexpected summer blend.

— HELLO DELICIOUS! —
Hello Delicious! A juicy summer fragrance for cheeky gals who like playing in the sun. Part floral, part citrus with a creamy Sandalwood and White Musk base. Notes include: Pink Jasmine, White Jasmine, Tart Lime, Pink Grapefruit and French Vanilla. Fun, flirty, and just a bit fresh.

— MISS LUSCIOUS —
This blend was created for a friend of ours who is on her honeymoon right now. This scent is summer in a bottle! Notes include: Pink Pepper, Black Pepper, Tuberose, Coconut Cream, Starfruit, Tangerine and Sandalwood.

— SKY PLUMERIA —
Our amazing friend Sky inspired this perfume. She loves plumerias and was looking for a perfume more reminiscent to the true scent of Plumeria. We combined Waterlily, Gardenia, Jasmine and Tahitian Vanilla notes and a hint of citrus with Plumeria notes. The results were luscious! You'll feel like you're in Maui wearing a Plumeria Lei!

— SOL TROPICAL —
This fragrance marries the sunny citrus zest of Liquid Sunshine with the lush creamy dreaminess of Tropical Paradise. This is a luscious, refreshing scent reminiscent of a walk though a tropical jungle leading to a secluded waterfall. Top notes of Citrus, Juicy Tropical Fruits, Tropical Flowers. Heart notes of Coconut, Vanilla, Jasmine. Base notes of Sandalwood, Musk and White Amber.

— STARGAZER LILY —
One of our most exciting scents—not for the meek or demure! Lush, rich and exotic is the heady scent of Stargazer Lily. Aside from their exceptional beauty, these hybrid oriental lilies exude the most intoxicating aroma, quite similar to that of the Ylang Ylang flower, also from Asia. Although the Ylang Ylang flower is not a lily, we used generous amounts of it in this blend to mimic the delicious scent of Stargazer Lily. The top notes are Muguet and Mimosa, with heart notes of Jasmine and Ylang Ylang and base notes of Sandalwood, Vetiver and Balsam Peru.

— TIARE FLOWER —
The Tiare flower is a creamy, star-shaped blossom belonging to the gardenia family. All over Polynesia, but especially Tahiti, Tiare flowers are picked and soaked in coconut oil for 15 days to extract their delicate aroma. The fragrant oil that is extracted through this method is called Monoï and is used in perfumes, cosmetics, body oils and soaps. Top notes of Tiare, Gardenia, Ylang Ylang with heart notes of Coconut, Tahitian Vanilla, French Vanilla in a base of Sandalwood and Ambergris.

— TROPICAL PARADISE —
Tropical scents happen to be our favorite! We had a hard time choosing which ones to add to this blend but we narrowed it down to tangy top notes of Lime, Papaya, Pineapple, and Hibiscus. Heart notes of Hawaiian Plumeria, Jasmine, and Hawaiian Ginger. Creamy base notes of Coconut Cream, Sandalwood and Vanilla.
