Q Botanical Perfume

Description

A 1/4 oz of green, woody botanical perfume extract. 7 grams of the fragrance arrives in a French glass flacon, contained in a emerald green hand crocheted pouch and packaged in a silk lined purple box.

Made with pure essential oils, c02 extracts and absolutes in a base of organic grain and grape alcohol.

Devoted to the Coastal Live Oak and the first botanical perfume in our Californica Series. The formulation of this fragrance opened the door, duirway, to our appreciation and love of California Native Plants.

Pure eco-luxe perfume created with vital plant essences. For the vibrational aspect of the oak I have hand tinctured Coastal live oak leaves on Beltane Eve. Beltane is one of the High Celtic Holidays. I combine my perfume accords with hand infused tinctures of local plants into our organic grain and grape alcohol which come from Oregon.

This listing is for a 1/4 oz of botanical perfume extract, created by hand utilizing pure, plant essences. The perfect gift for those allergic to traditional perfume. The fragrance is also available as a 1 gram extract:http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=29675651

+ Mood: The strength of the earth. The potential of the universe.
+ Illuminating Combination: Essence of “Green” + Underlying Wood Notes
+ Artist Note: Inspired by the glorious Coastal Oaks in the Santa Monica Mountains. My intention in creating this perfume is greater awareness and protection of this mighty, gracious tree.

Author Tonie Silver says: "Q is an homage to Roxana’s beloved Oaks. Round like the great trunk, with dark, shady greens, and the sharpness of leaf points. An enveloping scent, one which encloses the wearer within its protective
arms, er, branches."

This perfume is made by hand with tremendous love and devotion for the California native oak which has been slowly being replaced by the palm tree here in our local woods. Please help us to restore this splendid tree to the local woods. A portion of the proceeds from this perfume supports the California Oak Foundation.

All our items are handcrafted in a smoke and pet-free environment.
