Elemental Alchemy Project

  So
what have I been up to? Oh, just spending
time calling the elements is all ;) This project began about two
years ago and have been slowly working on it as time allows. It
has finally come together and in the next two weeks this line of elemental
perfumes will be set to release along with an elemental candle set as
well . Pictures and labeling are in the final stages, so plans for release are for
the week before the Summer Solstice . I have
been very particular about these scents and have not been so quick to
create them as I wanted them to be unique, giving them Spanish
names for each element, which is different from what you normally would
see from those who have similar collections. Also to allow myself
time and venture into testing different types of resins. Resins I have not used before and
that not only had a harmonious aroma with my chosen oils and herbs to be
first a "perfume" but
important that they would also correspond traditionally
to the elements for those who chose to use them in workings. Blends
that would not only be used to scent the body but invoke the actual scent
of each element based on my own memory recall. This was tricky to balance
both concepts and at times a frustrating process scratching off many
scent accord groupings as I went and starting over and over, but I can say I am
finally satisfied with my interpretation of each elemental
scent. After all what does water smell like ...or air? Everyone has a different olfactory
recall for each I know, but I feel confident that the blends I have
created will still indeed take you to the place where your senses
can celebrate the beloved elements of Earth, Air, Fire and Water. I can't wait to release these ! :)     |
