2. Happy Halloween ~ Autumn Harvest

This is truly one of the most beautiful seasons and one of my favorites. The beautiful colors surrounding us everywhere. The big pumpkins, acorn squash, the last of the herbs gathered, the first blast of winter chill, the first fire making everything cozy and warm. Picking apples, the scent of apple pie, hot applesauce laced with cinnamon!

Halloween is the time of apple harvest, and there are many Halloween traditions in which apples are very important. Candy apples are a traditional trick or treat gift, or bobbing for apples, or 'dooking' as it is called in Scotland.

Apples also have a history of being used for healing ('an apple a day keeps the doctor away').

The weather is changing and our skin needs more protection. The kids are in school and getting the sniffels. The heat is on and the air is very dry.

Do you have your basics for the coming season .. ie: shea butter, skin creams, carrier oils, essential oils, etc. ?

Honoring the ancient art of perfumery

Many of you are experienced in the blending together of essential oils to create a "synergy," a term referring to the combination of different essential oils that merge together to become a resulting unit that is an entity all its own.

The art of Traditional botanical perfumery also uses synergies. These are referred to as "accords" or "chords". Using an extended palette of aromatic materials, a fine artisan perfume is infused into a high quality alcohol base. The use of alcohol rather than oil for tradition perfumery allows for a greater "lift" into the surrounding air along with a greater range of fragrant notes to be perceived. A fine perfume first lifts itself up into the air, then reveals its components incrementally in various stages. Finally, the perfume will settle down to veil the skin subtly, yet with easy discernment.

An artful perfume reveals itself in the same way as a well written symphony. It begins with a seductive and inviting introduction,. This alluring beginning attracts the nose and encourages one to continue experiencing the evolving orchestration of aromas. Soon after this initial hit, one is able to settle down deeply into the theme, or heart of the perfume. Heavier than the top, this heart is the soul of the perfume. In addition to continuing and developing the theme of the perfume, the heart marries the top and the base notes of a perfume blend. You might say that the heart of a perfume is an aromatic expression of harmony and unity.

The final and often most defining aspect of a perfume composition lies in its base, or dry out phase. This is the most long-lasting aspect of perfume. This aromatic base melts into the individual and unique personal scent of ones own skin, creating an aromatic calling card that clings to the wearer and bestows aromatic sweetens to those who draw close.

As a traditional botanical perfumer, I have studied this sacred and elusive art all my life. It is my privilege to create for my clients uniquely personal scents that express that which they wish to say without words. If you are interested in experiencing this ethereal art for yourself, I would be delighted to work with you. You may reach me at:
