The Ouroboros
| Posted on March 30, 2016 at 11:43 AM |
 I did not know which route to go with this one as all I knew is that I wanted the main focus to be thyme, not only for the unique aromatic properties of fresh thyme but also that it was fitting as what I was creating was to embody a sense of time. So from there on I worked around that note adding my favorite olfactory fragrances and materials that signified personally to me the essence of youth, love, strength and bits of nostalgia. A blend to capture my spirit, where I have been, where I am to journey next and a bit of something of the unknown. Many formulas and names for this one evolved, many indeed. Until one day it came to me that for many months I had been seeing this Ouroboros symbol around a lot. So much that I began to think it was just not coincidental and should not be ignored . An ancient alchemy symbol that signifies the end of a cycle and the beginning of another. It represents eternity, infinity and renewal, cyclical transformation and the creation of life through death. I found this to be fabulous and most fitting to this stage of my life. On April 11th I will be turning 40 and so this marks the end of what to me is one part of the cycle in my life and so begins new one. No longer so youthful but much wiser and worldly,but not yet the stage of the beautiful crone either ...and so the cycle continues and this gypsy woman journeys on. A new beginning which I thoroughly embrace with open arms, mind and heart. To celebrate this milestone I had in the works for about a year this blend that was to be very personal and unique in composition of notes and experimenting with more than just a few accords; which was a welcomed challenge for me. So indeed it is finally complete and to be released April, 11th and perfectly named none other than "OUROBOROS". |
