Is this note/fragrance feminine/masculine/unisex?

All notes and fragrances are gender neutral. Firstly, there are more than two genders. Secondly, it's impossible for a fragrance to have a gender, or to work better with a specific gender. All fragrances can be worn by all people; it's simply a matter of what scents they prefer. I ask as a non-binary Two-Spirit system that no one describe any of my fragrances in a gendered way, and thank them for their respect. :)

Will you make a fragrance inspired by (X)? How about on commission?

After 10 years of offering this service, I retired the commissioned Bespoke and Sponsored Fragrances option in 2023, as my experience with it went mostly poorly. I'm always accepting fragrance ideas, and I'm always willing to help folks make their own fragrances. No, I will not make a fucking Wesker fragrance. No, I will not make a fucking Castiel fragrance.

Will you change the shipping address on an order? (and) Will you combine shipping?

Yes-- If we cancel the existing order and reorder what you'd like with the correct address. Please please review my shop and your address carefully before purchasing, and feel free to reach out if you're curious about a scent's inspirations or other ideas for a scent that you may like, and finalize your cart before your order is placed. To qualify for Etsy's Purchase Protection Program, your order MUST be shipped to the address you provide within the order, not to an alternate address we correct via discussion. I wish I were making this up as I loathe to inconvenience my customers, but here it is in the Handbook for reference: https://www.etsy.com/seller-handbook/article/1085799204521

Will you restock (X fragrance)?

I'm a professional perfume house, and I like to pay my bills. I've been in business since 2013 and some of my fragrances have been in the shop for this entire time, having been restocked hundreds of times thus far. I would be out of work if I didn't restock every fragrance I sold out of. Yes, I will continue to remake and sell (X) fragrance(s) once they run out.

1) Do you offer refunds if my package was lost in the mail? 2) Or if it smells different than a two year old version?

1) Etsy's Purchase Protection will provide a refund for packages lost in transit, however to qualify, your order must be shipped to the address provided to Etsy. If you need me to change an address after you place your order, we will need to cancel your original order to purchase a new one with the correct address. I do hate to inconvenience my customers in this fashion, but this will ensure that your order is protected. Please see this Etsy article for reference and full Etsy Purchase Protection eligibility requirements: https://www.etsy.com/seller-handbook/article/1085799204521 2) No. Fragrances change as they age, and a freshly restocked fragrance will not smell as complex as an aged version of itself. Give it time. 🙂

When will my order ship out?

There's a real time tracking estimate in the body of every listing, under Shipping and Return policies. If you hover over "Order placed", you'll get more info. Check this before placing an order. I ship ASAP, but due current international events, shipping times+costs of materials (As of 2026, oil prices have tripled) to ME factor into my shipment times to YOU. Las Vegas, NV postal carriers wait to batch orders before bringing them to my small town. I'm dealing with ongoing injuries from a car crash that cap the amount of orders I can pack in a week. I pack orders in batches every Wed-Friday, and typically ship them on Fridays. If you need it by a certain date, please let me know when you place the order and I'll do my best to accommodate!

Do you use water/alcohol/coconut oil/sweet almond oil/other non-jojoba oil as a carrier? Why are there spots in my fragrance?

No. My fragrances use 100% pure jojoba oil as their carrier, in a parfum strength concentration, which is the strongest, safest concentration I can provide. Jojoba is the best carrier oil you can find. That is part of why these are priced as they are. 🤠 The "spots" are thicker oils. These fragrances are made of mostly or entirely natural oils. I'm sure you've seen that pine sap is thicker than orange juice? Natural oils are much the same. Give the fragrance a shake to recombine as instructed in the FAQ included in your order and apply as normal.

Why are your fragrances priced as they are?

My experience, the price of materials and shipping, Etsy fees, and the quality of materials I use, including making my own fragrance ingredients that can be found nowhere else. I try to keep my costs as low as possible to bring luxury goods to as many folks as I can, but this is my primary job, and I am obliged under capitalism to price my fragrances in a way that serves not to be an expensive hobby, but a profitable business that feeds my family and helps us to help others along the road. I am always happy to provide resources and education about the materials I use to share perfumery with all who are interested in it.

What are your credentials as a perfumer?

I've been a professional perfumer since 11 May 2013, and I've been working with and creating fragrances my entire life. I've been a witch my whole life (and a studying drabarni since 2016), and I am majoring in herbalism, which I hope to achieve a masters' degree in. I have been a professional wilderness survival guide focused on wildcrafting since early March 2013. I offer classes and consultation on desert survival (focusing on the flora of the Mojave and Sonoran) and perfume creation, and have done since 2016. I've worked in the outdoors with plants my entire life. I've also got scent-color synesthesia, which I hope lends an even more uncommon and magical element to my work. 🤠

Are your fragrances available in roller ball or spray bottles?

They are available in dabber bottles (sample sizes) and roller ball bottles (larger sizes). They are held in an oil carrier, not a water or alcohol carrier, so cannot be sprayed without clogging the spray bottle's works. This is safer for pets, other people, etc. as many natural ingredients can harm pets if ingested by licking their fur or people if accidentally sprayed onto their skin via airborne fragrance. Furthermore, as a Desi Old West historical reenactor, I strive for historical precedent and cultural ties in my packaging and products. Oil-based fragrances applied directly to the skin is a grand cultural and historical tradition that I am proud to continue.

Highlights

Made by CherrykasTrunk
Materials: russian fir, valerian, lavender, oakmoss, smoke, black spruce, essential oils, fragrance oils, key accords, jojoba carrier oil, clear glass bottle

The scent of a stone castle deep in the mountains of Transylvania, with forests surrounding the structure. A scent of old age and decrepitude that blooms and takes shape, reforming on the skin with the warmth of your blood. Russian fir, black spruce, valerian, and a misty whiff of oakmoss, lavender, and smoke.

NOTE: This fragrance is inspired by Count Dracula, from Bram Stoker's Dracula, 1897.
IT IS IN NO WAY ASSOCIATED with the historical figure from this world, Vlad III Dracula, or Vlad Tepes.

Begin Content Warnings/trigger Warnings for slavery and racial slurs:
Vlad Dracula began the slavery of my people, the Řomani, that lasted for 500 years, until around 1860. My family were some of the Řoma that were enslaved. We are currently the most trafficked/enslaved ethnicity on the planet. I was trafficked/enslaved in the US for nearly a decade. (You may have heard of us under the perjorative "gypsy", which is a racial slur, and has been one since its creation. This is the origin of the word "gypped", also a racial slur.)
End Content Warnings/Trigger Warnings.

Opré Řoma!

Please use with care if you have sensitive skin or if you are a person who is pregnant.

NOTE: This fragrance does not contain blood or wine. Obviously.

Etsy buyer Sep 26, 2025

A true 5 star one from my batch order. I really love this one. Notes: Conifers, smoke, slight hint of dirt and metal. It truly smells like fresh firs, spruces, and pines wet with rain and the smell of wood smoke lingering in the air. It's a very "cold" scent, wintery but in a dark and foreboding way. I didn't detect any of the florals and it doesn't have any powdery notes that florals sometimes bump into as it aged on my skin. I'll likely buy a larger amount of this one, I truly love it.
