BEARD OILS of the GODS Sampler
Fires of Freyja Viking Inspired Beard Oils are made using my tried and true signature base of sweet almond oil, jojoba oil, and argan oil, with the addition of pure vitamin E oil, which is a natural antioxidant and preservative, and one of the best oils you can put on your beard. This base is then infused with premium-grade, skin-safe fragrance oils & essential oils, for a combination that will soften and tame your beard, while nourishing your skin and your soul. Release your inner Viking!
Sample packs include four 1/8 oz. premium beard oils and a description card printed front and back with complete scent descriptions and inspirations. They arrive in a 3.5" x 3.5" box neatly tied together with kraft string and ready for gift giving.
This sampler includes the below scents:
HAMMER OF THE GODS
"Then he gave the hammer to Thor, and said that Thor might smite as hard as he desired, whatsoever might be before him, and the hammer would not fail; and if he threw it at anything, it would never miss, and never fly so far as not to return to his hand..." — The Prose Edda Hail to Hammer of the Gods! Paying homage to the mighty Mjolnir with prominent notes of leather and steel and nuances of earth, wood and spiced ale. Behold the scent of battle and glory! Honor your ancestors!
ALLFATHER
Lo, there do I see the wanderer, the raven god, the Allfather! Odin is the god of wisdom, poetry, war, death, divination, and magic. Father of Thor and husband to Frigg, Odin rides into battle atop his trusted steed, the eight-legged Sleipnir, wielding the mighty spear Gungnir! This scent includes notes of mighty oak, mountain frost, forest floor, sea salt, and vanilla, with a touch of sage. Wisdom from ages past brought to you in a scent for beard and skin.
TRICKSTER
Numerous gods are depicted in the Prose Edda, but none with the mystery of Asgard’s friend and betrayer, Loki. At times lighthearted and at others malicious, he causes much strife for the Aesir, but is often the one to remedy it. He is the father of Fenrir, Hel & Jormungandr by the giantess, Angaboda; father of Narfi and Váli by his wife Sigyn, and mother of Sleipnir. The cunning and charismatic shapeshifter eventually pays for his crimes in a heinous way by being chained in a cave by son Narfi's entrails while a snake drips venom onto his face. There he lies bound until Ragnarok. I chose to represent the darker, less playful side of our Trickster God with a unique scent which takes you deep into the dark forest where nuances of earth, oakmoss, vetiver and coffee envelop you. As with the Trickster himself, neither evil nor good, but nonetheless a bit odd and unexpected. This is an intoxicating, mysterious scent with amazing longevity. This one may not be for the less adventurous!
GOD OF WAR
Inspired by Tyr, bravest of the Gods, comes God of War! Tyr is also the God of Honor and Justice, meaning this scent needed to be bold, yet genteel, badass, yet refined; a scent befitting the God who knowingly stepped forward to place his hand into the jaws of Fenrir. He of course lost that hand, a disability which he wore as a constant reminder of the act of bravery for the sake of the world, but also an act of bravery that won him a place of honor among gods and the respect of his peers. This scent was crafted with all of this in mind and starts with a deep, woody base including cedar, oud, and sandalwood enhanced by bourbon, bonfire and amber, coming together as a scent inspiring heroism and courage. Raise your Heathen hammer high!
