<b><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Negative ions, stress reduction and gemstone therapy: a life
update. </span></b></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">If you're a part of our Facebook group (<a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/732218350204527/" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/groups/732218350204527/</a>), you've already seen an
update from me last week. We are finalizing things for our late summer
release and I've been on a technology diet. We will start teasing our "late summer" collection this week so follow us on Instagram @solsticescents and Facebook for previews. I've found the constant EMF
and positive ion exposure from the mobile device and computer has been
taking a toll on my physical and mental health for some time. For the
past few months, I've been focusing on anything I can do to decrease my
cortisol levels and stress, support my adrenals and rebuild my vitality. Part of this quest
has been reducing my tech exposure and this means less engagement on Instagram
and Facebook. I've worked on having more structured times online and not
succumbing to as much aimless scrolling. I've noticed a huge difference
in my mood and energy levels by making these shifts. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Negative ions:</b> Part
of my stress reducing program has been to take time for meditation,
sound therapy, stone therapy, aromatherapy and negative ion exposure. You can expose
yourself to negative ions by going to the ocean, waterfalls, mountains
or on a rural country drive with the windows down (and get out to hike
around too). Reducing your exposure to EMFs and positive ions is another
key component in balancing your blood and constitution. Negative ions
are also high in the air after a rainstorm. I've been traveling a bit
recently to various places in my area (country, ocean, springs, forest)
to ground myself and get my "vitamin I(on)". Here is an article from 2002 about negative ions: <a href="http://www.webmd.com/balance/features/negative-ions-create-positive-vibes#1" target="_blank">http://www.webmd.com/balance/features/negative-ions-create-positive-vibes#1</a></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Far Infrared (FIR):</b> Recently I invested in a
gemstone mat with far infrared therapy and PEMF (pulsed electromagnetic fields). You may have heard of the <a href="http://www.biomat.com/?utm_source=adwords&utm_medium=cpc&gclid=CLfR4pCWtNUCFQsIaQod5IALaw" target="_blank">BioMat</a> before. This is a similar
product put out by a company called <a href="https://healthyline.com/?wpam_id=195" target="_blank">HealthyLine</a>. The product I have is
called the Inframat Pro TAO. <a href="https://healthyline.com/product/tao7224p/" target="_blank">https://healthyline.com/product/tao7224p/</a>.Tao stands for tourmaline, amethyst and
obsidian. It contains approximately 15 lbs of amethyst, 2 lbs of tourmaline ceramic
and 2 lbs of obsidian. Far infrared (FIR) passes through the stones and
to you as you lay on the mat. FIR May be useful for stress, blood
circulation, better nutrient uptake, metabolism, pain, chronic fatigue,
arthritis, depression, insomnia, cramps and more. This mat can get up to
158°F and the soothing heat penetrates at least 4 to 6 inches into the body. Unlike a regular heating pad, it does not emit harmful EMFs due to the multiple filtering layers within the mat. The heat also penetrates deep into the body whereas a heating pad simply treats on more of a surface level. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Sauna Function:</b> My mat came with Mylar space blankets and a waterproof cover. You may do a home sauna by placing the cover and some towels on the mat and covering yourself with the Mylar blanket, which reflects the heat back on to you (keep your head out of the blanket, obviously). You may do this sauna by turning the heat up to 60 to 70 degrees Celsius for about 20 to 30 minutes. It gets hot and you will sweat! Saunas have been used for ages to detoxify and burn calories. Many saunas use a far infrared bulb as the heat source and this is the same concept, but without needing to have a whole sauna in your home. Watch a video of how to do the sauna here: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0JWc97m7dhs" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0JWc97m7dhs</a></span></div>

<b><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">BIOMAT VS HEALTHTLINE INFRAMAT PRO TAO PEMF MAT:</span></b></div>
<div id="yiv5987844329yMail_cursorElementTracker_1501013860575">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div id="yiv5987844329yMail_cursorElementTracker_1501013860575">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">My first experience with gemstone FIR mats was with the <a href="http://www.biomat.com/products/professional-biomat/" target="_blank">BioMat</a>. One of the acupuncture physicians that I see has a BioMat on his treatment table. The warmth from the BioMat is deeply soothing. It feels like laying out in the hot sun without the possible danger of prolonged UV exposure. Far infrared therapy is essentially like getting the best part of sun exposure. Sun exposure is important for Vitamin D levels, which are chronically low in the vast majority of the population. We've been taught to lather up our sunscreen, cover up and limit our sun exposure when in fact a small amount of sun exposure is crucial for vitamin D production and general well being. Low-frequency far infrared rays do not damage the skin and they transmit more heat than ordinary light.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I have also enjoyed the BioMat at a local crystal and mineral shop. My mom was with me and was the first to have a short session. She reported that it was better than a massage and that she felt wonderful, relaxed and de-stressed. My mom is pretty high strung, a "go, go, go" kind of character who has trouble winding down and relaxing so this was a profound change in her constitution. I enjoyed a similar experience and my lower back tension was obliterated in about 15 to 20 minutes on the mat. I thought what a wonderful addition a mat like this would be to my destressing tool box. I frequently have lower back tension and I also have a hypertonic pelvic floor as well as inflammation in my abdomen that I try to control through a FODMAP diet, turmeric supplementation and so on. FIR is supposed to have anti-inflammatory action and I felt it'd be amazing to put into daily use. I have used FIR therapy before. I have a FIR bulb that I use on targeted areas when I'm in pain or discomfort. The issue with the bulb is that you can only safely use it for a short time, you have to be extra careful about eye protection as the light can damage your eyes and you must keep it at least 18" from your body. It also emits EMFs. I wanted something that I could safely enjoy and also apply the therapy full body, so the mat started looking more and more appealing. </span></div>

<div id="yiv5987844329yMail_cursorElementTracker_1501013860575">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">As I started researching BioMat, I came across the <a href="https://healthyline.com/?wpam_id=195" target="_blank">Healthyline</a> Inframat Pro. I was intrigued because the product appeared to be on par with the BioMat but it was significantly less expensive. The BioMat 7000mx professional is $1695 and measures 27.56" x 74". It comes with a really nice state of the art controller. I have nothing but good things to say about my experience with the BioMat. The biggest factor for me came down to the price. I do not have health insurance and spend the money I otherwise would spend on insurance on organic foodstuffs, acupuncture, chiropractic, holistic, massage, herbal and naturopathic wellness. I frequently use aromatherapy, sound therapy (Tibetan singing bowls), yoga, mediation, Shamanic journeying, crystal therapy, walking, rebounding, Dead Sea salt and Epsom salt baths and so on to prevent dis-ease and maintain my physical and mental well-being. As such, I will spend this kind of money on my health as an investment if I perceive a benefit for myself and my family. This was still a lot of money to invest, however! I discovered the Inframat Pro model I ultimately purchased measured 72" x 24" and cost $999. I was able to save 10% and get free shipping at checkout, which brought the total cost to $899. $899 versus $1695 was much more in my range. <b>(If you decide you'd like a mat from HealthyLine, use ss10s at checkout to save 10% and get free shipping).</b> The Inframat is just slightly smaller than the comparable BioMat model. Biomat contains approximately 15+ lbs of amethyst whereas the Inframat Pro TAO contains approximately 15 lbs amethyst, 2 lbs obsidian and 2 lbs tourmaline ceramic (the small brown spheres pictured in the close up). The construction and internal layers on the two products are also very similar. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>PEMF (Pulsed Electromagnetic Fields):</b> The other difference between the BioMat and the Inframat Pro Tao is that the latter also has PEMF technology. </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">PEMF
has a host of touted benefits such as decreasing pain and inflammation,
assisting with arthritis, healing a variety of wounds, being helpful
for recovering cancer patients after chemotherapy, regenerating blood
cells, boosting the immune system, having a positive effect on blood
sugar and cholesterol and more. </span>I had been doing independent research on PEMF and was completely fascinated with it. I researched <a href="https://www.micro-pulse.com/" target="_blank">Dr. Robert Dennis</a>, who was contracted by NASA to develop some of the first generation PEMF technology, as well as other leading experts like <a href="https://www.drpawluk.com/buyersguide/research-product-features/" target="_blank">Dr. Pawluk</a> and <a href="http://www.bryantmeyers.com/" target="_blank">Bryant A. Myers</a>. There is some discrepancy about the best waveform, Hertz and Gauss that a PEMF device should have. I have watched and read some experts specifically state that under 1 Gauss (more specifically about .64 Gauss) is the most effective for treatment whereas others say that you need at least 10 Gauss to get any benefits at all! I think that if you're going to a clinic for a short 30 minute session, 10 Gauss may be more effective whereas a home device with lower Gauss is more affordable and can be used for many hours. In other words, I think the higher Gauss levels are meant for therapeutic situations and that is why some say it is better to have more power. Most of the experts do agree that the most desirable Hz level is between 1 and 50 to mimic the Earth's magnetic field. There are also discrepancies about how important the particular waveform is. I've read and watched videos where many agree that a sawtooth wave and square wave seem to be the most desirable but it seems the most attractive thing is that you want magnetic flux and even reversed polarity in a device to get the most benefit and to prevent acclimation to the treatment to where it won't effect you any longer. Dr. Pawluk believes the waveform isn't necessarily what is important. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The Inframat Pro TAO has 7.83 Hz with 3 Gauss and uses a sine wave. It comes with a little plastic cylinder with a small metal ball inside. When you turn the PEMF function on, the metal ball jumps within the cyclinder so you can see the magnetic pulsation! You can see a video of what I'm talking about here:<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_TC04AgXEzQ" target="_blank"> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_TC04AgXEzQ</a>. The link is to the HealthyLine Youtube channel where you can watch them cut open the mat to reveal the internal layers and you can also watch them test their mats with an EMF meter to show no harmful EMFs are being emitted: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyMe_EukIdESTTE5l-KoCKg/videos?sort=dd&view=0&shelf_id=0">https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyMe_EukIdESTTE5l-KoCKg/videos?sort=dd&view=0&shelf_id=0</a>. There is another video on Youtube where a user measures the EMFs emitted by one of the HealthyLine mats, but it is an old product where you used to have to control blocking the EMFs with the controller. Now all of the mats have the protection built in.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I found a clinic offering PEMF in my area and I'm going to be booking a session to experience a medical grade device to compare to my mat. I'm not sure if my mat is the most effective form of PEMF and if it has the right specs (as I mentioned, there are many differing opinions), but I definitely haven't had any negative effects from using the mat. In fact, I feel fantastic now that I've added the mat to my anti-inflammatory diet (no sugar, wheat, etc). I also did a 6-day fast 2 weeks ago, quit coffee and have been back to a primal/paleo style of eating since I reintroduced food to my system so it is hard to say which things are contributing to my vitality but I think the fast kickstarted some major healing. I've also been taking Jatoma bark (Mycozil from Global Healing Center) which is a powerful antifungal/anti-yeast. Candida yeast is known to cause digestive disturbance, among other things. I've been loving the Mycozil but had taken before the fast and while still on coffee, occasional alcohol and occasional wheat and sugar and I didn't feel this great. I have read that far infrared (FIR) is anti-candida as well. Kill it with fire! Or, you know, heat.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Improved sleep/sleeping on the mat:</b> I really feel like the FIR and the negative ions have boosted my mood, relieved nuisance muscle aches and pains and I have been sleeping very well all through the night. I'm on a sabbatical from alcoholic beverages and will say that when consuming them, I'd always have to wake up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom and I'd have trouble falling back asleep for a while. I did try sleeping on the mat but didn't care for it as it is a bit hard. You also have to turn the temp down to 35 to 40 Celsius and I prefer the mat at full temp for 30 to 60 minutes when I use it. I really like it hot! The other concern is that I have a Tempur-pedic mattress and Tempur-pedic warns against using a heating pad with the Tempur material. I think the heat can possibly degrade the material. The underside of the mat does get a bit warm so when I use it in bed to watch a movie or something, I am now placing it on a comforter to have a barrier.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Mat for dogs</b>: When researching PEMF, I realized that it and the FIR therapy could be great for my senior dog who has bad arthritis in his hips. He is on a fantastic supplement with glucosamine, hyaluronic acid and chondroitin and MSM and he also receives acupuncture and chiropractic adjustments as well as a hyaluronic shot to help him naturally without the side effects of Rimadyl. In one independent study done by Dr. Dennis, PEMF regrew bone in a rabbit. Well, one night I was "preheating" my mat so I could lay on it and meditate a bit before bed. The door to the room was only open about 2 inches. I walked past the room again and saw it was wide open and in the light of the Himalayan salt lamp, I saw the shadow of my senior dog, Blix! He had pushed the door open and positioned himself directly on the mat. I had to turn on the light and take a picture. Ever since then, he has tried to get on to the mat and I've even found him on the cold mat that isn't even on, if I leave the door to that room open. I believe that he has experienced pain relief from the mat so I routinely invite him on there with me. He has a really nice Lai Fug which is a Tempur-pedic type of dog bed) and even an indoor dog house with a soft blanket inside (originally built for another dog to hide in during thunderstorms but she prefers under the desk or in the closet. He loves it though!). He sleeps with us at night on our Tempur-pedic. Point is, there are plenty of other places for him to enjoy laying down other than this kind of hard mat. So I think he is enjoying the penetrating heat. The sheet is a bit mussed from when I laid on the mat earlier (I like to take the top folded layer and put it over me for extra warmth); this is a candid shot!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Yoga on the mat:</b> I have tried yoga on the mat and I think it will take a bit of practice as the surface isn't completely flat so your hands can slide a little. It could be that the sheet I have on the mat is a bit too slick. The mat does have the cotton cover on it, under the sheet, which helps. When I talked to the <a href="https://healthyline.com/?wpam_id=195" target="_blank">HealthyLine</a> customer service rep, Tina, she mentioned that she uses the mat to do yoga. I don't want to put my yoga mat on top of the mat as I don't think heating up the chemicals on the yoga mat would be great to breathe in. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Gemstone therapy: </b>Working with crystals as a healing modality is not widely scientifically proven and falls a bit more into the esoteric realm of alternative healing. There are ways to work with the stones as tools where you may release trauma, grief, fear, anger, malcontent and other negative emotions and empower yourself with positive, higher vibration energies. Different stones are used for different mental and physical conditions. There are a variety of techniques for chakra healing and balancing, using sacred geometry and crystal grids, spiritual reflection, meditation, astral projection and so much more using crystals. I have had exceptional experiences using stones as a tool to convert negative energy and release old hurts. I often use them on my chakras (on the mat!) while meditating on each chakra and healing. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">All of this being said, there are scientifically proven uses for many crystals. They are used in your television, lasers, watches and many other things. Crystals are conductive and can store energy. Amethyst, a form of quartz, is a super conductor and it is an ideal material for the FIR waves to pass through on your mats. It emits a lot of negative ions. There are many claims about what different gemstones can do for your mental and physical health. Amethyst has been said to reduce stress, anxiety, depression (the negative ions can have an impact on mental wellness so I can buy this), increase lymphatic drainage, rejuvenate the skin (FIR has also been said to promote collagen production, reduce fine lines and reduce acne), decrease hyperactivity and more. In the mats, the jade and tourmaline offer similar benefits in conjunction with FIR. They all emit negative ions and naturally emit FIR and to some degree assist with a peaceful state of mind and well being. They all transmit the FIR heat wonderfully. You don't have to believe that certain stones have certain frequencies and internal lattices which can assist you with a whole host of conditions. The focus of this article is about the mat and FIR therapy and PEMF have been well-researched and accepted as supportive treatment modalities. You can try the mat and see if you notice positive effects for yourself and ignore the more "woo woo" aspects of the crystals and focus on the fact that they are great natural conductors of the therapeutic FIR heat.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Home trial and warranty:</b> Healthy Line offers a 45 day in home trial. They will refund you 100% if you don't love your mat, though you have to incur the cost of shipping the mat back to them. I read some complaints about the BioMat controller ceasing to function. I think it is a touch screen controller and it is state of the art. The controller is somewhere in the $250 range to replace if your warranty is out of date. The controller for the HealthyLine mat costs around $20 to $30. It is very basic and easy to use. I didn't need anything fancy and I think that is part of why the BioMat is a more expensive product. The HealthyLine controller has on/off switch and a dial to turn to set your temperature. The PEMF has its own button so if you want to turn it on, you push the button. You can use the PEMF by itself or in conjunction with the FIR. You can also use the FIR by itself without the PEMF. The PEMF cycles on for 20 minutes and off for 100 before turning back on to 20. You may set the controller for a 3, 6 or 12 hour session so it can be on while you sleep and automatically shut off after the allotted time. They offer a 1 year full warranty to replace your mat or controller if it breaks. The mat is very well made and the most likely problem, according to customer service and if you should even have one, would be the controller. I'd rather spend $30 or less to replace a controller than be caught in a situation where a more advance controller, such as the one with the BioMat, breaks on me outside of warranty. HealthyLine does offer an extended 5 year warranty for 20% of your mat price but I decided not to go for it after talking with customer service. You may also trade your mat in at any time to get 50% off another mat, should a newer model come out that you really want. I figure I'll go that route should something happen to my mat in the coming years.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Proper use of mat:</b> I have photographed the mat to show how it looks but in use, you need to cover it with a sheet, thin blanket or towel. My mat came with a cotton cover so I put that on and then cover it with a sheet. I asked for a cotton cover in the comments at checkout. It came with the waterproof cover as well, for the home sauna function, and I did not ask for that or the 2 Mylar blankets so I assume that those items come with the mat as they were a pleasant surprise when I opened my mat's travel bag. The cotton cover for this mat runs around $30 if you ever need to buy a new one or forget to ask for one.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>This mat is inflexible though they have many other mats:</b> This mat is stiff and can not be positioned to put on a chair. It does tri-fold so you can store it in its bag but it does not bend and fold as much as you would need to put into a chair. They do sell a really flexible mat that I was very close to purchasing instead of the Inframat TAO. It is called the <a href="https://healthyline.com/product/018/" target="_blank">Reverse-18JT Inframat Pro</a>: <a href="https://healthyline.com/product/018/" target="_blank">https://healthyline.com/product/018/ .</a>This flexible mat can be positioned on a chair, bed, floor, whatever. I love that it is dual sided so you can lay on the amethyst side or you can go for a more acupressure point hot stone sensation by laying on the jade and tourmaline side. You choose which side you want on during your session. I thought it would be great to have therapeutic options and I could see myself using both sides. The flexibility was very attractive as I do a lot of computer work. However, I chose the mat I did because it was $100 more and I felt it was a superior product. The Reversible model has 10 lbs of amethyst on one side whereas the Inframat TAO has 15 lbs plus the 4 lbs total of obsidian and tourmaline. I liked the idea of being able to lay on 19lbs of stones on one side to get all that power instead of just 10 lbs. The mat I chose also has gets up to 158F whereas the Reverse only gets to 140. I knew I would want more heat and the customer service rep agreed the higher heat is much better for the sauna function, even though the Reverse listing says you can do a sauna. The reverse side of the Reverse model has 120 pieces of jade and tourmaline ceramic discs. I loved that but for $100 more I felt the one I got was a better fit and I liked that it has PEMF and also almost 20 lbs of stones on one side. HealthyLine also sells a few really cool chair models, including one like my Inframat TAO, that can also be converted to use in the car. That would be amazing for long distance drives. My back always kills me when sitting in the car for a road trip. <a href="https://healthyline.com/product/tao-chair-p-pemf-inframat-pro/" target="_blank">https://healthyline.com/product/tao-chair-p-pemf-inframat-pro/</a></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Since I didn't get a flexible model for my chair, I'm strongly considering getting the small pad that they sell as it is only $99! It does not have amethyst or PEMF. It is just 16 2" discs of jade and tourmaline but the mat gets up to 160F and it would be perfect for the back of the chair or on my seat. I can also see using it on my abdomen as I lay on my back in bed. I would usually use The Original Bed Buddy (a buckwheat pillow you put in the microwave for 2 minutes. It provides about 1 minutes of damp heat) on my stomach after dinner and in bed just to relax and assist with digestion but I've been laying on the mat every night instead. However, you do have to make time to use the mat so this portable option could be great. <a href="https://healthyline.com/product/inframat-pro-smallpad-3jt-mesh/">https://healthyline.com/product/inframat-pro-smallpad-3jt-mesh/</a></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Edit 8/2/17:</b> <b>(Please see my edit for 9/4 below if considering a small mat). </b>Yesterday, I ended up purchasing the Pebble T 20 x 20 mat. I decided on this model because it has more negative ion output (1500/cc versus 700/cc) than the small one linked just above and I liked the smaller tourmaline disks. I plan on using it on the seat of my office chair for comfort while working on the computer and I like the negative ion output to combat the positive ions from the monitors! I have a Himalayan salt lamp and a variety of crystals on my desk for this purpose but this mat will be much more powerful. I can also put it against the back of my chair for my back and look forward to taking it to bed and placing over my stomach when I'm full or underneath my lower back. It gets up to 160F as well. We have a converter for the car to plug that mat in, so I am also planning on putting it to use in my car seat during traveling as my bum always bothers me as I sit for long stretches. It is so small that it will be great to have on a trip anyway, instead of packing the full size mat: <a href="https://healthyline.com/product/inframat-pro-smallpad-03t/" target="_blank">https://healthyline.com/product/inframat-pro-smallpad-03t/ </a></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Edit 9/4/2018</b>: I prefer the <a href="https://healthyline.com/product/tao-soft-1818-inframat-pro/" target="_blank">TAO MAT SMALL 1818 Inframat Pro</a> to the <a href="https://healthyline.com/product/inframat-pro-smallpad-03t/" target="_blank">Pebble T Pad Small 2020 Firm Inframat Pro</a> (<a href="https://healthyline.com/product/inframat-pro-smallpad-03t/">https://healthyline.com/product/inframat-pro-smallpad-03t/</a>). I did order the Pebble T as mentioned in my edit just above on 8/2/17 my office chair. Sometime after I ordered, Healthyline released a small TAO mat, that is basically the same thing as the large mat I reviewed in this blog post, without the PEMF technology (<a href="https://healthyline.com/product/tao-soft-1818-inframat-pro/">https://healthyline.com/product/tao-soft-1818-inframat-pro/</a>). I ended up getting one for my parents and one for my in-laws for Christmas but checked it out before I gifted it. I can unequivocally state that this mat is the superior model when it comes to the smaller mat options Healthyline offers. I plan to do a blog post comparing just these two items, but I did want to share that between the Pebble T currently priced at $119 (I paid around $150 originally, I believe) and the Tao Mat Small, the Tao Mat small for $159 is 10000% worth the extra money. It is a little smaller but it is flexible, more comfortable/softer and has a more satisfying and comfortable heat emission. I also love that it looks just like my big mat, which I still enthusiastically recommend to everyone and still use almost every day!!! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Contraindications/who shouldn't use this mat:</b> Pregnant women, people who have had bypass surgery, have a pacemaker, are using muscle relaxants and blood thinners (i.e. Coumadin), are very elderly or who have an intolerance to heat or experience hot flashes. See the HealthyLine site about contraindications in the FAQ or by contacting the customer service department to make sure it is safe for your general condition as these were the warnings issued in the brochure under the "hot stone therapy" section and who should not receive it. Certain conditions such as cancer, liver or kidney disorders and more need to keep the heat lower, suggested at 90 to 120F.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Conclusion:</b> If you are fatigued, depressed, anxious, have digestive troubles and
other nuisance health issues, you may need to take a serious look at
your diet to start. This may include nutritional support such as an
organic bioavailable food-based vitamin supplement, adaptogenic herbs
and herbal allies in general and so on. You may need to tear down your
rickety house and rebuild from scratch because there is no sense
replacing the leaky roof if your walls are termite ridden. Allopathic
medicine and pharmaceuticals can only patch the holes in your foundation
but should not be the foundation of your existence </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">(I'm talking about common conditions here such as lethargy, minor pains,
etc that might be overcome with natural methods instead of Rx. For much more serious maladies, a nutrient-rich diet and mental health are also important but I'm not saying "Cure cancer by eating seaweed"!). Mental health and
well being are of paramount concern in your quest for wellness. You
cannot just eat your way to a better lifestyle. Core changes within your
spirit need to occur. This is the holistic approach to health, a focus
on both physical, mental and spiritual wellness. You cannot isolate one
factor such as focusing on exercise and still eat lousy. You can't eat
top of the line non-GMO organic foods and leave your spirit in shambles
by not working through your pain, fear, grief, heartbreak and so on.
Those negative emotions sit within you and create havoc for your health.
You can't just push them down and thing they will go away. I've focused
far to long on my physical health through diet and supplementation but
did not place enough emphasis on how important the mind, perspective,
peace, forgiveness and acceptance (among other things) are for
overcoming physical debilitation, even though it is a component I knew
was important. I was addicted to my personal pain but didn't realize it
until I began to overcome it. Now I have come to the point where I am
addicted to feeling well and when I catch myself falling into focusing
obsessively on certain physical health issues, I work quickly to diffuse
the bomb before the old habits and mental constructs blow up in my face and bring me to my
knees. Working on adding tools, like this mat, to my toolbox in order
to assist myself with diffusing the bomb has been a strong focus. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I'll conclude this long post by inviting your questions and to also say that I am so glad I made this investment. I really do feel the benefits and my husband also loves to use the mat for his tight back and to relax before bedtime. </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> <b>(ss10s at checkout = less 10% and free shipping).</b></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;"></span>Snowmint
Mallow is subtle yet sweet and cakey blend featuring cool creamy
peppermint,
vanilla cake, white flaked coconut, fresh baked cookies and a dollop of
marshmallow creme. On cold sniff and initial application, each of the
notes are detectable with the peppermint floating on the top. The
peppermint is a top note and therefore its presence is short lived.
Snowmint Mallow quickly evolves into a gourmand delight of mouthwatering
fluffy vanilla cake, sugar cookies, coconut and mallow. Past initial
application, Snowmint Mallow snuggles in close to the skin. Whiffs of
coconut, cookies and cake will be had occasionally but since this
fragrance wears
closer in your aura, it makes for a perfect subtle sweet scent for the
workplace or for when you'd like to smell good but not too heavy. It
also makes for a really cozy and comforting fragrance to wear just
before bed. This
heavenly fluffy foody fragrance is especially recommended to those who
love cake and cookie scents. </span><br />

Christmas Tree Farm sits at the base of Mount Willow in the town of
Foxcroft. The annual winter crafts festival at Winslow's offers
handmade bayberry candles, rustic wreaths, orange pomanders and much
more. Meandering down the lane leading into Winslow's, you pass rows
upon rows of fragrant Christmas trees ready for harvest. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold;">Winslow's
is the scent of winter. Fir, woods, bayberry and mistletoe meld with
spicy clove and blood orange essential oils and the result smells
effectively like bottled winter. Winslow's contains fir absolute and
essential oil, spruce EO, cedar, a touch of guaiacwood and a blend of
several fragrance oils in addition to the bayberry, mistletoe, clove and
blood orange. Fans of our Black Christmas soap will love Winslow's as
the fragrance is very similar. If you enjoy evergreen and/or woods
scents or our Shoikan Grove, Covered Bridge and the previously offered
Cedar & Siberian Fir fragrance, make sure to try Winslow's. The
combination of bayberry and clove gives the impression of a Victorian
Christmas. Unisex.</span><br />

cream filling infused with loads of bright lemon and sandwiched in
between two perfectly spicy gingersnap cookies. On cold sniff and
initial application the lemon cream filling is sweet and tart tempered
by the vanilla blend. The gingersnap cookies are the perfect blend of
ginger and cinnamon and pair wonderfully with the sweet cream filling.
This fragrance is uplifting and comforting. The lemon will soften after
some time on the skin as the vanilla cream filling becomes more
prominent in the dry down. Lemon Ginger Creams is a great substitute
for the discontinued Gingerbread & Vanilla Cream fragrance. The
gingersnap notes are very similar to the gingerbread in Gingerbread
& Vanilla Cream. Lemon Ginger Creams contains real ginger essential
oil that smells incredible. After an hour or so of wear, Lemon Ginger Creams
turns into a soft vanilla cream filling scent with only a faint trace of
lemon and gingersnap.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold;"><i>Perfume, Whipped Soap, Burnishing Glace, Dead Sea Salt Milk Bath and Body Ganache. </i><span style="color: #cc0000;">We highly recommend layering the ganache with the perfume and/or glace to increase the staying power and presence on the skin. </span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;"></span>Buttered
Rum Mallow smells of spiced rum swirled with marshmallow and brown
sugar. On cold sniff and initial application, the rum, cardamom and
nutmeg are the most prominent notes, followed quickly by the clove. The
heavy winter spices and rum are tempered with the butter, brown sugar
and marshmallow and this fragrance will become a bit sweeter the longer
it is on the skin. It evokes the mood of being snuggled in a warm
sweater, curled up with a hot mug of your favorite holiday drink in the
presence of a roaring fire while everyone is asleep and inches of snow
blanket the ground outside. Buttered Rum Mallow is a foody blend at the
core but it is really dark, sophisticated and rich as well. The buttery notes take a few hours to peek out. This is a
gourmand fragrance unlike the sweeter cake and mallow counterparts and
may be one men will also enjoy.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold;">Buttered
Rum Mallow contains a blend of rum, marshmallow, butter, brown sugar,
cinnamon, vanilla and amber with essential oils of cardamom, nutmeg,
clove and all spice. </span><br />

still night wood, blanketed in snow. Absolute frozen silence lit by
the full Cold Moon. Conifers, resins, white amber, bayberry, snow,
amber and a puff of incense wrap around a core of our Edge of the Night
fragrance. The result is a coniferous forest scent with wisps of cold
air, frankincense and winter woods. Shadows in the Night starts out
with a strong blend of very smooth spruce and fir mingling with the
frankincense and Elemi. After a few minutes on the skin, the white
amber and mint provide lift that gives the sense of moonlight and snow.
Though Shadows contains peppermint, the fragrance itself is not minty
at all. The blend is wintery, woodsy, cool and complex. If you have
enjoyed our other woodsy fragrances such as Enchanted Forest, Outpost
and Shoikan Grove, you may enjoy Shadows in the Night. It is completely
unique compared to the aforementioned scents but it contains some
similar notes. Unisex.</span></span></span><span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><br /><br />Shadows
in the Night is the third offering in 'The Night' line. When crafting
Edge of the Night, it was clear that it was a fragrance that could stand
on its own but also one that would make an incredible darkly sensual
foundation for other oils. Used as a base for Shadows in the Night, the
end result is a sophisticated unisex fragrance which contains a total
of 32 fragrance and essential oils. Though you can detect Edge of the
Night carefully woven into the Shadows in the Night blend, Shadows in
the Night is its own unique woodsy, coniferous, haunting fragrance. The
Edge of the Night fragrance worn alone manifests a deeper, musky,
powdery dry down with a green lift and is mildly spicy as compared to
Shadows. After several hours of wear, the two fragrances share a
similar character though Shadows maintains a lighter character due to
the white amber and continued to maintain a slightly foresty edge.<br /><br />The
notes in the Edge of the Night base for this fragrance include: amber,
oakmoss, aged patchouli, bergamot, black vanilla, red musk, buddha wood,
organic clove EO, star anise EO, cinnamon and a nominal amount of
lavender
absolute and agarwood.</span></span></span><br />

again. Sweet golden amber mingles with spicy ginger and clove
and dances on a bed of freshly sliced oranges. This smells divine and
deeply sensual and evokes the feeling of being in a still, dark room
with nothing but incense smoke caressing you and flickering candles
casting a warm orange glow from the boudoir. It is nothing short of
trance-inducing, calming yet exotic.</span><br style="font-family: Arial;" /><br style="font-family: Arial;" /><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;">Astral
Temple starts out with a strong burst of fresh orange. Shortly after
application, the orange fades and the
amber, ginger and clove take first position. Astral Temple contains a
blend of fragrance oils as well as ginger and blood orange essential
oil. Do not apply prior to prolonged sun exposure as citrus oils can be
phototoxic. Unisex. Try layering this with Fires in the Night to add additional amber and spice to that blend. </span></span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">For

<h1 style="font-family: Arial;">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span>A cloaked and bearded man wanders the globe with his walking staff and
Cartographer's maps. His pouches contain exotic spices, herbs, stones
and other various curiosities he has acquired during his travels. In a
red velvet pouch, he keeps his most prized treasures: clove buds
acquired in Indonesia, Frankincense resin traded to him by an
introverted widow on the Northern Coast of Somalia and precious amber
tears he found on his travels to the Baltic Sea. He keeps his pouch
hidden on the inside of his cloak, but he always smells faintly of these
precious spices and resins. <br /><br />Travelers perfume is an exotic
blend of clove and frankincense essential oil, mingled with a sweet,
warm and enticing golden amber. A very Old World blend, this fragrance
is an excellent unisex indulgence and a very unique signature scent.
It's a little smoky, spicy, resinous and sweet.</span></span></span></h1>

<b>Russian Caravan is a blend of smoked black teas and black leather combined with fruity pomegranate and black currants, exotic amber. </b><b><b>a touch of special pink peppercorn essential oil, black pepper essential oil, guaiacwood and Lapsang Souchong C02 (smoked tea). </b>It smells primarily of the smokey tea and leather
and has a masculine edge due to these components. The amber is not
readily apparent until it has been on the skin for some time and at
that point the scent is mostly that of a soft tea and amber. It lends
itself to smoothing the blend out and taking the edge off of the
harsher dominant notes. The fruits and peppercorn add a twist
and slightly sweeten the blend. On skin the combo takes on a note of
tobacco leaf as well. <br />

<br />
The salt blend is topped with a few festive cranberry seeds. The

White Amber, White Musk, Vanilla Accord, Peppermint Cream, Cold Winds</b><br />
<br />
A chilly white blend of an ethereal snow blanket and cold winter winds,
Snowshoe Pass combines pale white amber, delicate and smooth white
musk, a sweet touch of vanilla and a faint whisper of creamy cold
peppermint. The result is a unique take on a winter scent inspired by
heavy snows and desolate rural regions. On cold sniff and initial
application a creamy peppermint note is detectable as a top note,
though it is a careful addition that takes a backseat to the other
notes as it wears on the skin, ultimately receding entirely. There is
just enough peppermint to enhance the coolness of this plushly white
blend. The other notes swirl together to evoke not only a snow covered
landscape that may only be traversed with snowshoes and a pioneer
spirit, but the calm and intense silence after a snow deep in the wild.

<b>FLINTLOCK<br />
TOBACCO, SADDLE LEATHER, VIRGINIA CEDAR, BLACK PEPPER, WOODS, BAYBERRY & EVERGREENS<br />
<br />
NOT TO BE USED BY WOMEN WHO ARE PREGNANT OR NURSING.</b><br />
<br />
A frozen expanse of untamed early America stretches as far as the eye
can see. The boughs of cedar and conifers are heavy with snow. Your
steed is laden with provisions, taking a slow measured pace through
this unfamiliar region. Subtle wafts of your last fire emanate from
your coat. Your saddle is warm and sturdy beneath you as your ride
with trusty musket close at hand, prepared for the uncalculated dangers
only the deep winter wilderness can oblige. <br />
<br />
Flintlock is an intensely dark, ominous, woody, smokey and slightly
coniferous blend. It is a combination of Tobacco absolute, saddle
leather, Virginia cedarwood, black pepper, sandalwood and a medley of
other woods with a touch of evergreens, bayberry and smoke that will
plunge you deep into a Pioneer's winter in the American frontier.
Flintlock is darker on cold sniff and initial application than on the
dry down. The evergreen and bayberry notes are very mild and primarily
detectable at this stage. The blend wears like a warm brown leather
jacket. It is woody, smokey and refined on the dry down. <br />

<b>OUTPOST - <span style="color: #cc0000;">A Best Seller!</span><br />
Sugar Crystals, Spruce, Fir, Soft Woods, Bayberry, Mistletoe & Amber</b><br />
<br />
<b>NOT TO BE USED BY WOMEN WHO ARE PREGNANT OR NURSING.</b><br />
<br />
A beacon of light amidst cold, desolate wilderness. Pass through a
copse of young evergreens into a warm cedar cabin and thaw out under a
soft Afghan blanket by a blazing fire while sugared treats from the
kitchen fill the air. Notes include sugar crystals, spruce, fir, a
medley of soft woods including sandalwood, agar, cedar, aloeswood,
patchouli, guaiacwood, bayberry, mistletoe and a touch of amber.<br />
<br />
This complex and unique blend will take you on a morphing adventure,
not unlike Witch's Cottage from the Fall Collection, though Outpost is a
distinctly different blend. On cold sniff and initial application,
sugar encrusted evergreens emerge as the top note. The evergreen is
primarily detectable early in the life of the blend though remaining
ever-present in the since it is a wash off product which can retain the
top notes. The blend of woods emerges to greet the sugar crystals
after a few minutes with a hint of bayberry in mistletoe in the
background and the spruce and fir far behind. The dry down is a very
soft, warm, sweet and comforting blend with a tiny wisp of sweet smoke.
The green notes are very faint and barely detectable at this stage. <br />
<br />
Despite the evergreens and woods used, this is a very gentle blend of
soft woods as opposed to a dark, heavy, woodsy blend. The sugar keeps
it light-hearted and the other notes bring a festive winter impression
to mind. A mega morpher that is very fun to journey with when you're
outside on a cold day. Cool weather really brings the notes of
Outpost to life and enhances the blend. If you liked the complexity
and warmth of Witch's Cottage, with sweet juxtaposed next to herbal
and woods, you should like Outpost! <br />

<b>SUGARVALE<br />
Candied Pecans, Butterscotch, Buttered Rum, Brown Sugar, Maple Syrup, Hot Pralines & Milk Chocolate Cocoa</b><br />
<br />
Nestled in a mountain vale lies a small, quaint community with rustic
buildings housing friendly, hardworking people. A special delight
during the harsh and demanding winter season is the Sugarvale Candy
Kitchen in the middle of town. Smoke billows profusely from the
chimney of the confectioner's cabin. Aromas of candied pecans,
butterscotch, buttered rum, brown sugar, maple syrup, hot pralines and
milk chocolate cocoa fills the air across town, beckoning the
inhabitants inside to warm cold bodies and empty tummy's alike. <br />
<br />
On initial application and cold sniff, candied pecans emerge from the
mouthwatering golden notes mentioned above. The pecans subside leaving
the butterscotch, buttered rum, maple and brown sugar sweetening your
skin with just a hint of hot pralines. The milk chocolate hot cocoa
is not readily detectable but the chocolate note helps to round out
the blend from being too sweet, though this mix is toothsome and very
warm and delicious! <br />

<br />
Cold sniff and initial application features a marriage of frankincense

essential oil. The nutmeg is divine, authentic and spicy and adds and
exotic mood to the blend. As the nutmeg and frankincense subside, the
dry myrrh essential oil comes forward with a very light lemon note.
All of the notes combine to form a dry down which is primarily
smooth patchouli with resinous myrrh, a whisper of citrus and woods and a
delicate bit of spices. <br />

<b><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /><br />Burning
desire, feral passion and an edge of mystery churn together in this
stirring fragrance. Warm ginger, bright orange, clove, cinnamon, smooth
sandalwood, amber, sweet tendrils of wood smoke and a touch of aged
patchouli stretch luxuriously over a foundation of our Edge of the Night
fragrance. Fires in the Night features a melange of warm spices
caressed with wood smoke and paired with a large dose of delicate
sandalwood. Additional amber and a few drops of aged patchouli add body
while the glowing orange top note compliments the ginger and clove and
adds a sultry presence to the final composition. This scent contains so
many glorious layers that work harmoniously together to produce an
amazing sweet, smoky, smoothly-spicy and rich fragrance that warms the
heart and senses. The dry down features warm woody and smoky notes that convey the fires aspect of the scent. If you are a fan of Astral Temple and/or Conjure, you
might enjoy Fires in the Night. Unisex. <br /><br />Fires in the Night is
the second offering in 'The Night' line. When crafting Edge of the
Night, it was clear that it was a fragrance that could stand on its own
but also one that would make an incredible darkly sensual foundation for
other oils. Used as a base for Fires in the Night, the end result is a
sophisticated intensely complex unisex fragrance which contains a total
of 31 fragrance and essential oils. Though you can detect Edge of the
Night carefully woven into the Fires in the Night blend, Fires in the
Night is its own unique spicy, smoky, incensey, glowing fragrance. The
Edge of the Night fragrance manifests a deeper, musky, powdery dry down
with a green lift and is mildly spicy with no smoke, orange or
additional wood notes. After several hours of wear, the two fragrances
share a similar character though Fires in the Night maintains a smokier
and spicier profile. <br /><br />The notes in the Edge of the Night base
for this fragrance include: amber,
oakmoss, aged patchouli, bergamot, black vanilla, red musk, buddha wood,
organic clove EO, star anise EO, cinnamon and a nominal amount of
lavender
absolute and agarwood.<br /><br />Use
caution if applying this fragrance near cuts or broken skin as the spice
oils may sting on individuals with sensitive skin.</span></span></b><br />

We have been planning this collection for a year and we're thrilled to
finally reveal The Foxcroft Collection. Six immersive scents have been
carefully crafted to evoke the atmosphere of various destinations
within the quaint and beautiful town. Foxcroft has been one of our best
Autumn season sellers for the past few years and we wanted to bring the
town to you, much as we did for the Manor Collection, which was based
off of the popular Manor fragrance. The Foxcroft Collection offerings
are explained in detail on the Solstice Scents Forum here: <a href="http://solsticescents.forumotion.com/t573-solstice-scents-autumn-collection-part-2-this-sunday-10-17-at-6-pm-est#3884" target="_blank">http://solsticescents.forumotion.com/t573-solstice-scents-autumn-collection-part-2-this-sunday-10-17-at-6-pm-est#3884</a></strong></b></span></span><br />

<br />
<b><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">The fall collection will be issued in two parts this year. The first release will take place this Saturday and features returning scents from previous years, including the return of last year's Manor Collection. The second release will take place in late October and will feature a themed collection of brand new scents.</span></span></b><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">In addition to the returning items illustrated below, the Kitchen fragrance will make it's debut in body ganache! The other big surprise that will be unveiled is the return of the General Catalog scent "Monster Mash" but it will be under its new name of "Loggia". Though it is GC, I will be listing the Loggia products under the Autumn Collection page on the site as well, so you may find them easily during the release. </span></b><b><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Loggia has only been
slightly modified from its original incarnation as Monster Mash and is
essentially the
same great scent that you remember. A touch more amber has been added
to
round out the sharpness of the mahogany and there is also a small
increase of sandalwood, cardamom, black pepper and all spice EOs to
compliment the fragrance oils.</span> Loggia will be available in perfume, ganache, home fragrance oil and glace for this release. The last surprise is a small batch of Seance bar soap. I expect this will sell out quickly. We made a decent quantity of the fall offerings and will restock certain popular items should they sell out. The focus will shift completely on to part 2 of the fall release as there is an immense amount of work to be done for that to come out before Halloween. Therefore, restocks will be intermittent as time allows. The best advice is that if there is something you really really want, please go ahead and purchase it because I cannot fully guarantee a restock of all the items: salts and scrubs, chiefly. There will be plenty of perfume oil and frequent restocks for that.</span></b></span></div>

<b>Twenty
oils are combined to evoke the character of the exquisite library of
the Manor. Ample wood shelving displaying countless works, primarily
bound in leather, is found on all four walls of the library. A
fireplace on the west wall features an intricately carved rosewood
mantle and heavy dark wood wainscoting adorns the walls beneath the book
laden shelves. Dying embers impart a soft smokiness in the room and
the scent of aged paper and a worn brown leather armchair melds with the
rich leather and wood notes. </b><span style="font-size: small;"><b> </b></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><b>Library begins as a robust woods
and leather (brown and black) scent with strong smoky overtones on
initial application but after a few short minutes it begins to soften
into a realistic and complex fragrance that contains elements you'd
expect to experience in the fine personal collection of the Manor.
Library contains a blend of sandalwood EO and FO, agarwood, nagarmotha
EO, choya loban attar, guaiacwood, Virginia cedarwood EO, leather,
copaiba EO, benzoin EO, rosewood EO, Plai EO, western red cedar EO,
rhododendron leaf EO, osmanthus attar and fragrance oils. The dry down
features a combination of woods, leather, embers, dust and brittle paper
with a rich lemony-rosewood finish. </b></span></div>

exquisite lace-overlay dresses, heirloom linens and crocheted tops,
forgotten in the attic of the manor house. The scent of this cedar
chest and the soft mustiness of stored linens with the beautiful, yet
faded, perfume of the owner still detectable upon the fabric is captured
in the Attic Perfume. A fine vanilla accord is paired with the most
gorgeous red cedar heartwood EO, aged sandalwood EO and osmanthus
attar. Attic starts out strong, with a burst of the cedar EO and
vanilla accord but mellows into a sweet, woody, slightly musty and dusty
fragrance that is exquisitely atmospheric. It shares some character
with the Manor perfume and fans of Manor may enjoy Attic, especially if
they like really gorgeous and true cedar essential oil. This cedar
smells just like an aged piece of dried cedarwood and pairs wonderfully
with the other notes on the dry down.</b></span></div>

<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<b><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Autumn
at the Manor features a bustling kitchen alive with the sweet scents of
fresh baked seasonal treats. Large windows bathe the kitchen and its
vast array of copper and cast iron cookery with light. A basket of
fresh-picked orchard fruits sits near the scullery, awaiting a
quick rinse before being sliced for rich lattice-topped pies. Warm
sugar-dusted sweets, pumpkin, flaky pastries filled with peach
preserves, sugar cookies, caramel and vanilla combine with a touch of
hay absolute, all embraced by a generous dose of sweet wood smoke to
bring you the Manor's fall kitchen experience. <br /><br />Kitchen is a
blend of 14 fragrance and essential oils that starts out with a burst of
sweet pumpkin followed by very gentle baking spices on initial
application. Juicy peach and a hint of frosting quickly follow with a
warm buttery pastry and soft sugar cookies underneath. The wood smoke
is generous but doesn't begin to emerge for about 15 to 20 minutes after
application. It does get stronger as it warms on your skin and the
fragrance begins to waft softly around you with the sweet wood smoke,
baking spices and mouth-watering baked goods. Kitchen is warm and
comforting, morphs wonderfully and the dry down is the essence of
autumn.<br /><br />The wood smoke is primarily detectable in the Perfume and
Burnishing Glace on the dry down. The Whipped Soap is primarily
gourmand, capturing the sweet pumkin, baked goods, soft spices and a
touch of peach with the wood smoke not being as apparent as in the other products.</span></span></b></div>

<b><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: orange; font-weight: bold;">CELLAR</span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Damp Earth and Stone, Wooden Casks, Cool Fall Air, Crisp Apple, Pear and Broom Corn</span><span style="font-weight: bold;"> </span></span></b><br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">The
Cellar of the Manor is constructed of stone and wooden beams. It
houses orchard fruits, wooden casks of estate wine and stores of broom
corn. The Cellar fragrance contains notes of oakmoss absolute, aged
patchouli EO, Virginia cedarwood EO, cool stone, red apple, Bartlett
pear, sweet clover absolute, hay absolute and guaiacwood.<br />
<br />
On initial application, Cellar has a very cool, wet stone and Earth
fragrance combined with a burst of red apple and fresh cut pear. The
hay and sweet clover rise shortly thereafter and lend an overall dryness
that tempers the sweetness of the fruit notes. The dry down is an
autumnal dirty/Earthy apple scent, devoid of spice notes, that has a bit
of warmth and dryness. The cool stone element is a top note that
dissipates shortly after application. When first applied, this element
of the fragrance is like a burst of coolness from when you first descend
into the cellar, which fades as you become accustomed to the air and
aware of the other scents in the room. The wood and patchouli notes add a
grounding earthiness that serves to deepen the other notes in the blend
without becoming a predominant patchouli fragrance. Unisex and
atmospheric.<br /> </span></span></b></div>

Musk, Sandalwood EO, Amber, Clove EO, Myrrh EO, Vanilla, Aged Patchouli
EO, Champaca Absolute and Aged Sandalwood Attar<br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;">Shake gently before
each use.</span> The Master Bedroom is furnished with a luxurious canopied bed
featuring a red damask spread with black velvet flocking, ornate
mahogany furniture, ivory lace curtains and exquisite needlepoint wall
hangings. The room has a delicate, sensual, sweet, spicy and musky
scent. Notes of soft musk, sandalwood EO, amber, candied clove, dry
myrrh EO, aged patchouli EO and precious champaca absolute combine with
an amazing sandalwood attar that has been aged for 3 years. The aged
sandalwood is beautiful and creamy with a slight anise-like spice. <br />
<br />
On initial application, the clove is the first note to emerge but very
soon after the delicate musk, exotic champaca, airy vanilla, rich
patchouli and woods quickly follow. The resulting scent is warm, sweet
and exotic. The patchouli is carefully added so that Master Bedroom is
not a heavy scent. The clove dries down to lend spice without
dominating the other notes. This has a gentle long-term dry down scent
with good tenacity and sensual yet sophisticated character. Unisex. </span></span></b></div>

Blossom and Absolutes of Lavender, Oakmoss and Mimosa</span><span style="font-weight: bold;"> </span></span></b><br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">The
Solarium of the Manor features a glass roof and walls to allow maximum
light exposure. Cascading plants tumble from terracotta planters while a
lush variety of fern can be found interposed between a variety of
herbs, blossoms, potted violets and orchids. <br />
<br />
Solarium contains a blend of rhododendron leaf EO, lavender
absolute, green notes of fern and oakmoss, rose geranium EO, geranium
bourbon EO, neroli, sandalwood EO, amber, mimosa absolute, violet and a
touch of tuberose. The resulting fragrance is a complex floral with
strong green and herbal overtones. If Solarium were a blend of colors,
its fragrance would be primarily purple and green tinged with gold. The
scent is incredibly unique. The rhododendron leaf and lavender are the
dominant notes, followed by a variety of fern. The other notes in this
blend add body and character without adding very heady and strong white
floral notes. Solarium is very strong upon initial application.
Rhododendron leaf is a fragrance like no other - herbaceous, creamy,
slightly floral and balsamic, it combines with the coumarin-rich
lavender absolute to provide a very cool-toned flower bed for the other
elements. This exotic full-bodied fragrance softens to a delicate,
herbaceous floral after about half an hour of wear. It doesn't morph a
great deal but it does dry down to a softer incarnation of itself.</span></span></b></div>

<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<b><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">All
six perfumes in the Manor Collection are available in a special box
set. We hand-stained each pine box with two coats of rich stain and
slightly distressed the box for a vintage look. All hardware (latch,
hinges and screws) was removed and treated with an oil rubbed bronze
finish to
give an antiqued appearance. The perfumes will come packaged in the
box, wrapped in a vintage handkerchief, with a card that denotes each
room with a brief description of each scent's primary notes. Every
handkerchief is different. Most feature an embroidered pattern of
flowers or herbs with the base color being ivory or white. These
handkerchiefs are of vintage quality and
therefore may contain slight imperfections such as a loose thread, a
very small area of discoloration (usually where a "Made In" sticker used
to be located on a corner) or a minute tear or tattered edge which
gives the hankie history and character. Each hankie will be a surprise
and is selected of our choosing to include in your set. The box is
intended to emulate the cedar chests used to store fine linens while
also representing one of the fragrances in the Manor Collection: Attic.</span></span></b></div>

known as Monster Mash). High above the village, a castle sits shrouded
in a heavy gray mist. Muted moonlight illuminates its upper terraces.
Thick with incense smoke, the loggia swells with invited guests, each
heavily cloaked and masked. Laughter, violas and a harpsichord fill the
night. Wine flows from never-ending mahogany vats. Exotic spices drape
the air in fragrant bouquets. A bell rings from the archway, and all in
attendance fall silent as the master of the night creatures crosses the
paving stones...<br /><br />Loggia is a
blend of rich mahogany wood, sweet amber, musk, dark incense, deep
vanilla bean
and spices. Fragrance oils combine with essential oils of sandalwood,
cardamom, black pepper and allspice. All of these notes meld
together to create a dark, rich polished wood with a cool creamy
sweetness and pleasing spice medley. Loggia is a rich unisex scent that
leans masculine but is also popular with ladies who enjoy darker
scents. It is strong on cold sniff and initial application with the
mahogany and spices being in the forefront. After about 15 minutes the
scent becomes creamy and more well-rounded with a touch of vanilla bean
and a healthy dose of amber smoothing out the dominant mahogany but
never fully extinguishing its presence. </span></span></div>
<span style="color: black;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><br style="font-family: Arial; font-weight: bold;" /></span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold;">Loggia
has only been
slightly modified from its original incarnation as Monster Mash and is
essentially the
same great scent that you remember. A touch more amber has been added
to
round out the sharpness of the mahogany and there is also a small
increase of sandalwood, cardamom, black pepper and all spice EOs to
compliment the fragrance oils. The resulting fragrance is smooth and
very rich.</span></span></div>

<b><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Midnight
Oil is solely comprised of essential oils and absolutes. It is a deep,
earthy, rich and citrusy fragrance. The cocoa, patchouli and mushroom
absolute provide a dark, dank base for the bright blood orange and
mandarin essential oils. A touch of labdanum adds a subtle resinous
quality to the scent. The cocoa and chocolatey-earthy mushroom
absolute combine with the orange to lend this scent a strong gourmand
quality while the patchouli (aged 5 years) adds a deep musky and sooty
character. Offered as a Sugared Amber Whipped Cleansing Scrub which
also contains a little coffee butter and raw cocoa butter in addition to
the shea, Virgin coconut and other oils in the scrub. The cocoa butter
is not denoted on the label but will be mentioned on the listing so
please be aware for allergy concerns (though there is quite a bit of
cocoa absolute as well). In use, the Midnight Oil blooms in the shower
with a burst of earthy/Incensey orange. Huffing yourself during use IS
advised. It's mouthwatering: foody yet dark! Rich warm tan color of
this scrub comes solely from the essential oils used. Cocoa absolute,
patchouli and mushroom absolute are all very dark oils.</span></span></b></div>

Bathory is not just a macabre novelty that
turns your bath water the color of watered down blood, it also contains a
powerhouse of antioxidant essential
oils, green tea powder and a silky blend of oatmeal and coconut milk
powder. It is a combination of essential oils of pink grapefruit, white
grapefruit, palmarosa, geranium bourbon, peru balsam, roman chamomile,
rosewood and jasmine with a just a few drops of jasmine fragrance oil.
The
fragrance is a light tart citrus coupled with a tea-like mild
floral. A relaxing bath best used before bed or to ease nervous
tension due
to the sedative properties in the chamomile essential oil. Sweet
grapefruit is the dominant note in the bath. For best results, add when
tub is almost completely full of water. <br /><br />Topped with dried rose
petals. Contains red 40 which turns bath water
red. Read full listing for more details.</span></span><br />

<b>A Magical Blend of Vanilla, Amber, Cedar, Spices & Cauldron Smoke</b><br />
<br />
<b>This is the original recipe Conjure offered once again as a home fragrance oil! I have the ability to make the original formula again so I decided to make the home fragrance oil in the original version in lieu of the reformulated perfume/body products version. I do not have plans to discontinue the new formula for other applications (perfume, ganache, glace, etc) and change back to this one though.</b><br />
<br />
<b>Conjure
is a very soft and magical blend consisting of mild non-foody slightly
incensey vanilla, golden amber and fresh cut cedar with a faint wisp of
cauldron smoke, allspice EO, Sandalwood EO, Rose EO, Rosewood EO and
clove EO and a pinch of champa flowers. The main notes are the vanilla,
amber, woods and faint all spice. It is very sexy, mysterious and
intriguing.</b><br />

and its inhabitants for the winter. The kitchen is abuzz with the
creation of homemade delights but the most prized at the Blackburn
Farmstead is the blackberry and boysenberry preserves made from berries
grown right on the farm. In the autumn, the family gathers around the
hearth to enjoy fresh made butter and jam on hot from the oven
buttermilk biscuits. The jam is also a euphoric experience on the
homemade fresh-churned vanilla ice cream!<br />
<br />
Blackberry Jam, Boysenberry Preserves, Vanilla Bean Accord, Creamy
Vanilla and a touch of Vanilla Musk. This scent is not quite as
"literal" of a foodie scent as the Blueberry Muffin Batter. It is a
blend heavy on rich vanilla. The berries are primarily detected on cold sniff for the
perfume and whipped soap and initial application for the perfume and
glace. The ganache is a bit creamier and the vanilla is more in the
foreground, though the berries are detectable. With the ganache, the
dry down has the berries floating at the very bottom of an ethereal,
very feminine vanilla blend. The perfume and glace start out with the
delicious combination of berries laying on top of the gorgeous
vanillas. The dry down mirrors the ganache - sweet and creamy vanillas
in the foreground with a cool-toned blend of berries in the background,
rounding out the vanilla. We definitely recommend layering the ganache
and either perfume or glace to get the full effect of this fragrance.<br />
<br />
This is more of a "grown up" gourmand scent. Much in the way that
Aquolina Pink Sugar is very sweet and clearly has many sugary and foodie
notes but also has a hint of musk, Blackburn Farmstead follows in this
tradition in that it is very sweet, the vanilla and berries are true but
the touch of vanilla musk adds an edge that keeps it from being
straight up foodie and turns it from simply comforting to subtly sexy. <br />

cavity-inducing blend of sugared Halloween sweets, smelling similar to
a Halloween candy pail. Sweet candy corn, chocolate candy wrappers,
melty gooey marshmallows, sticky caramels, black jelly beans and more.
This scent starts off with a little burst of black licorice that
mellows quickly. Dry down is a soft blend of various can</span><span style="font-size: 100%;">dies, worn close to the skin but sweet and long lasting.</span></b><span style="font-size: 100%; font-weight: bold;"><b>

is a haunting blend of sage, clove, frankincense, patchouli and ylang ylang essential oils and a dash of sandalwood fragrance oil to
awaken the spirit. It smells mostly of spicy clove and sage followed by
a bit exotic and astringent frankincense oil. It has a deep,
herbaceous, woody, spicy, earthy and musky fragrance. The ylang ylang
contributes a sweet/light floral note and the patchouli is almost
undetectable, contributing more to the
overall fullness of the Seance fragrance rather than standing apart as
a strong note like the sage, clove and frankincense do. This very
popular soap is being offered for the fall collection, after a long
hiatus!</span></span></div>

<br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><strong>EDGE OF THE NIGHT<br />Black Vanilla, Soft Spices, Red Musk, Chypre Base</strong></span></span></strong><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><strong>Use caution if applying the products near cuts or broken skin as the spice oils may sting. If you are sensitive to spice oils, use caution when using the Burnishing Glace in the bathtub. This blend contains only a small amount of spice oils but they could be aggravating to those who are very sensitive to them. </strong><br /><br />Edge
of the Night is inspired by dark sensual perfumes for Women such as
Guerlain's Shalimar and Yves Saint Laurent's Opium. It is an elegant
yet edgy blend best suited for evening wear when you'd prefer something a
little more daring and sexy. This is a perfume that loves to be paired
with a bold red lip, stilettos and a leather mini. It's beautiful,
mysterious and fearless.<br /><br />Edge of the Night is a blend of amber,
oakmoss, aged patchouli, bergamot, black vanilla, a touch of red musk
and buddha wood and a delicate blend of organic clove EO, star anise EO
and cinnamon. This fragrance also contains a nominal amount of lavender
absolute and agarwood which are not a detectable notes in the blend.
It is well-blended and difficult to pick out individual notes but the
drydown smells deep, ambery, musky, sweet and a little spicy. On
initial application, all of the notes are vying for attention at once
with the bergamot top note emerging to the forefront. The bergamot
dissipates rather quickly as it makes way for the other elements with
the focus on a generous spike of amber. The spices lend an exotic
quality to the composition without being dominant or overpowering. It
takes some time on the skin before the undercurrent of black vanilla
becomes apparent. It will manifest with a rolling sweetness and a touch
of powder but will not overtake the other deeper notes.<br /><br />Edge of the Night has become one of my personal favorites!</span></span></strong><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Offered as Perfume**, Burnishing Glace and Ganache*. </span></span></strong><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">**The perfume is pretty concentrated and therefore strong on initial application. Apply sparingly the first time you try it so that you can gauge how much you prefer. I've found a heavier application places emphasis on the deeper notes, oakmoss and musk in the blend for longer, while a lighter application encourages the soft powder element to come out faster (within about 15 minutes).</span></span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> </span></span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">*For best results when purchasing the ganache: layering the Edge of the Night perfume on top of the ganache is recommended for the full experience of the scent and longevity. Select it as your free sample at checkout if you don't wish to purchase a full bottle. </span></span></strong><br />

<b><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><strong>BLACK MALLOW<br />Marshmallow Infused With Star Anise Essence & Vanilla<br /><br />Our
beloved marshmallow infused with star anise essence and vanilla. Black
licorice has a very distinct, dark, slightly spicy and very unique
taste. The aroma of anise essential oil mirrors the taste experience of
sinking your teeth into black licorice candies! For fans of our Warlock
soap, this is not to be missed! On cold sniff, the anise is most
detectable. On initial application, the anise is the strongest note but
the mallow and vanilla adds a creamy sweetness that keeps the anise from
being too sharp. As the perfume evolves on the skin, the anise melts
further and further into the vanilla mallow so there is a true infusion
of all components. Eventually the anise will wear almost completely away
but its presence doesn't entirely recede. It lends itself for the life
of the blend to morph the vanilla and mallow so that they aren't flat
but rather a whole new and uniquely wonderful fragrance. It wears closer
to the skin which means your nose will be glued to your wrist because
it is so delicious. Black Mallow does contain volatile anise essential
oil which does not have the staying power of some of our synthetic
components, however, this scent is so enjoyable that we don't think
you'll mind touching up to refresh! (It lasts a few hours on me,
especially when I rub some on the tops of my arms instead of just my
wrists). This scent is ultimately very smooth, creamy, rich and wicked
all in one stroke.</strong></span></span></b><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold;">Be
it for revenge or love, there is only one way to settle the score.
High Noon features all of the atmosphere of a showdown in the Old West.
Upon cold sniff and initial application, you will walk through the
saloon doors and be greeted with the scent of smooth oak-aged whiskey,
tobacco leaf, worn leather and a desert-warmed wood-paneled saloon. As
High Noon settles on the skin, it is rich and warm with the whiskey note
adding sophistication and enhancing the tobacco, leather and woods in a
very alluring way. Shortly thereafter, you will begin to notice the
smooth whiskey retreat as a sheen of light skin musk emerges. The scent
of a spicy-chypre perfumed bodice sensuously and delicately wafts in
with dry hay notes blossoming just beyond. A sun-baked Earth and touch
of gun-smoke start to gently weave in through the other notes. The
resulting dry down features warm dry woods, worn brown leather, tobacco,
a soft blend of skin and red musks, hot sand and a touch of spice and
golden amber. An incredibly layered blend with deep character and an
intoxicating scent. Cold sniff and initial application leans much more
masculine but the scent evolves quickly through each stage described
above, the whiskey note present on cold sniff is tamed early on and the
dry down will be enjoyed by women who like a warm woody-leather-tobacco
dominant blend with lots of atmosphere. The addition of the exquisitely
perfumed ladies' bodices keeps this scent from falling into a dank
overtly masculine fragrance category. Unisex.<br /><br />High Noon features
a blend of leather, tobacco, amber, red musk, skin musk, agar wood,
sandalwood and chypre enhanced with the following essential oils and
absolutes: tobacco, hay, buddha wood, labdanum, rooiboos, kapur kachari,
aged patchouli and mitti attar.</span></span><br />

delicate touch of ginger essential oil. Coquina marries sand and surf
with an incense like sandalwood blend, juicy citrus and exotic florals.
On cold sniff the orange blossoms, clementine and sandalwood dominate.
On the skin the sea mist and sand are detectable after the first few
minutes of wear. The coconut and ginger are very subtle but add
important nuances to Coquina's profile. Plumeria absolute smells
nothing like its synthetic counterparts. In this blend, it is used
lightly to add body to the orange blossom without overpowering. On
the dry down (which comes quickly) the light sandalwood notes dominate
with alternating currents of sand and sea spray. The floral notes are
primarily top notes that recede into a very tame and faint presence.
Coquina is a feminine soft tropical woods blend that is very wearable
and perfect for summer!<br /><br />Coquina contains a blend of fragrance
oils and the following essential oils and absolutes: frangipani,
clementine, ginger and mitti attar.</span></span><br />

Desert is a dry, woody, herbal reverent blend designed to evoke the
atmosphere of the hot unforgiving, yet majestic, desert habitat of the
American southwest. It features dominant notes of herbal white sage
and desert sagebrush with supporting background notes of soft woods,
sweet Indian tobacco, hay, Saguaro cactus, juicy prickly pear cactus,
baked sand and just a touch of smoke, labdanum and red musk. Despite
the complex palette used to create High Desert these notes were
selected to enhance and compliment the beautiful sage blend. On cold
sniff you will experience a dried sage leaf leaf with a sweet fruity
prickly pear top note and dry hay and tobacco finish. On initial
application the crisp green Saguaro cactus emerges amidst an endless
open blue sky. High Desert softens soon after application with emphasis
on a blend of light woods and dry herbal sage with the occasional whiff
of sweet tobacco and hay. The dry down hugs very close to the skin and
liberal application is recommended to increase its longevity. It does
not morph significantly but after several hours the labdanum will be
detectable. High Desert is a meditative, beautiful and very relaxing
fragrance that is especially wonderful before bed. For those who have
requested our Seance soap in perfume format, you may enjoy this
fragrance. The sage is more refined and much softer and High Desert
contains none of the spicy notes that Seance has but the sage note is
beautifully represented here. Unisex.<br /><br />High Desert features a
blend of fragrance oils along with the following essential oils,
absolutes and CO2s: White Sagebrush, muhuhu, nagarmotha, copal bark,
sweet clover, labdanum, tobacco, sugandha and mitti attar. </span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br />

Hand of Darkness is a term coined by seafarers to describe the loss of
the guiding light of the moon as it vanishes behind a thick misty veil.
The resulting darkness makes the seas treacherous and difficult to
navigate. This phenomena strikes fear into the heart of even the most
grizzled mariner.<br /><br />Hand of Darkness is a dark aquatic and woods
blend. It opens with a tumultuous and disconcerting blend of oceanic
accord (a blend of fragrance oils and seaweed absolute to evoke a
realistic scent of the ocean), chilly rainwater, black pitch and the
saturated planks of a wooden ship. On initial application expect to be
pelted with a strong blast of cold rain and oceanic brine. The black
pitch in between each of the ship's planks adds a dank quality at the
base while the lime EO provides a jolting top note. After a few
minutes, the danger begins to recede as the rain slows and a sliver of
moon reveals a promise of visibility. At this stage, the light woods
blend comprised of teak, copal and blue cypress begins to emerge along
with a splash of sea spray. Shortly thereafter, the moon fully emerges
and the calm seas signal the retreat to the dry warm Captain's
quarters. Here the true dry down of this evocative scent is revealed. A
tendril of spicy buddha wood EO begins to unfurl from the warm wooden
base. The buddha wood will grow stronger over time but the dry wood
notes remain unchanged. The dry down is achieved very quickly but you
have to journey through the story of this scent to get to the finale.
You must skin test Hand of Darkness in order to assess its true
character. </span></span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold;">This scent hugs close to the skin and liberal application is recommended. </span></span></span></span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold;">Even
though this scent starts out strong and masculine, the dry down is very
wearable and may be enjoyed by Women who like darker wood blends. <br /><br />Hand
of Darkness is comprised along with several fragrance oils along with
the following essential oils, absolute, CO2s and attars: mitti, blue
cypress, copal bark, fossilized amber, swiss stone pine, lime, galbanum,
coriander, seaweed, kapur kachari, tarragon and a small amount of
lavender absolute. </span></span><br />

Tropical Moon smells like an exotic beach paradise. It is sweet with
creamy white floral notes, a top note of lime and a subtle delicate pink
candy note from the pink lotus. Contains real tropical monoi (Tahitian
Gardenia blossoms infused in fragrant coconut oil), mouthwatering lime
essential oil, pink lotus attar and a blend of fragrance oils. Initial
application has equal parts of coconut and tuberose with the lime
hovering just above. The monoi and lotus are more subtle supporting
notes that add a little complexity. The lime burns off relatively
quickly in the leave on formats but does have a gentle presence in the
scrub and whipped soap. The dry down is a fairly constant blend of
coconut and tuberose without a great deal of morphing that translates as
a soft and creamy tropical fragrance. <br /><br />Tropical Moon is the

<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><b>A
warm candy-like blend of brown sugar, spicy green cardamom pods,
Moroccan rose absolute and Bulgarian rose absolute. It is luscious,
sweet and very enticing. On initial application, the rose and cardamom
are most apparent with the sweet brown sugar beneath. When applied
liberally, the cardamom will journey with you for a good 30 minutes to
an hour. The rose smells like candied rose petals. It is young and
gentle - not at all a matronly rose and not an assertive and
overpowering rose. It blends perfectly with the cardamom and brown
sugar. After about an hour the brown sugar is predominant, the cardamom
has receded and the roses are very subtle and tame. The long term dry
down is primarily a sugary, warm, brown candy scent. The scent is so
divine that you will want to reapply often and breath deeply! Cardamom
Rose Sugar is an alluring and romantic scent that smells almost edible.
The cardamom is added very liberally to this blend so it does not burn
off immediately as a fleeting top note. Skin test for sensitivity
prior to slathering all over as cardamom is a spice. It may feel
slightly warm upon your skin within the first few minutes of application
but you should notice this sensation dissipates very quickly. If you
are very sensitive, discontinue use. If you're not, slather it all over
your arm liberally and try not to eat yourself! If you like the brown
sugary tone in Blueberry Brown Sugar Muffin Batter and the Winter Scent
Sugarvale, you'll love Cardamom Rose Sugar!</b></span></span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><b style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Moroccan
spices, sandalwood, hot baked Earth, myrrh resin, precious saffron
threads and a touch of oud meld together to create a dry, woody,
resinous, spicy and extremely exotic scent representing the blisteringly
hot desert, spice caravans and never ending sun scorched sand. The
woods and spices on cold sniff and initial application quickly turn dry
and resinous as the myrrh and saffron boldly emerge. A hot
Mediterranean wind stirs desert sands, fusing with the incense wood
notes. Sirocco combines sandalwood essential oil and fragrance with a
real baked Earth Indian attar, myrrh and saffron essential oils and a
medley of spices. Sirocco does lean a bit masculine but it is a very
unique fragrance that Women would love to journey with as well. The
full experience is recommended with the perfume and Burnishing Glaces
where the dry resin, saffron, sand and woods are able to warm on your
skin and evolve. The Sugared Amber Scrub is a little bolder with the
spice and woods notes but is equally enjoyable.</b></span><br />

Scents is proud to offer gardenia essence from our homegrown
pesticide-free gardenia flowers. Only a limited quantity of .25 ml
premium perfume samples will be available. See diagram below for fill
level. Three different gardenia varieties (<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt; font-style: italic;">Gardenia jasminoides, Gardenia brighamii </span>and<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt; font-style: italic;"> Gardenia radicans</span>)
were used to create this 100% natural essence. Utilizing the
principles of the centuries-old practice of enfleurage, we developed a
unique technique to capture the fragrance of creamy white gardenia
flowers in full bloom.<br /><br />Enfleurage requires thousands upon
thousands of gardenia petals to be infused in fat (vegetable source).
Each tray takes multiple infusions and the petals must be replaced
frequently. It is a very laborious process and this first step mandates
a minimum of 6 weeks of dedication during the gardenia blooming season,
which occurs mid-April to the beginning of June. The flowers are
hand-harvested each morning for maximum potency. The premium samples
offered on this listing are from our 2012 batch of flowers. We are
currently working on enfleuraging the gardenias that are now blooming
and the 2013 batch will be available in the future. </span></span></span><br />

amount of time, effort and dedication required in this process,
enfleurage is rarely practiced today. Processing thousands of petals
only yields a very small amount of precious absolute, making it

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;"><br />This highly concentrated perfume is milky
white in color and presented in perfumer's alcohol. You'll experience a
strong burst of gardenia on initial application. The aroma of the
gardenia flower is unable to be extracted through the process of steam
distillation meaning that there is no such thing as gardenia essential
oil. In the rare instances gardenia is offered in the marketplace, it
is a solvent extracted absolute or concrete that does not capture the
true aroma of the flower. The solvent extraction process degrades the
delicate fragrance and yields a product that does resemble a gardenia
aroma with much heavier green notes but is nowhere near as realistic as
the gardenia aroma produced via enfleurage. Our process captures the
character of the flower as closely as possible, exuding the sweetness of
the velvety white petals with a very delicate and subtle green note.</span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt;">This perfume is for natural essence enthusiasts who have wished for a
true-smelling gardenia fragrance. It does not have the longevity and
sillage of its synthetic counterparts and after 15 to 30 minutes its
profile tends to hug closer to the skin. Most people should experience
2+ hours of wear when following these steps:<br /><br />1. This sample yields several uses. Settling will occur. Shake vial before application.<br /><br />2. Apply liberally to posterior of arm/wrist, as opposed to pulse point of wrist, for maximum longevity. <br /><br />3.
Application to skin directly from vial is more effective than multiple
swipes of wand applicator and will give you a stronger, longer lasting fragrance. Applying directly to the spot of choice and gently rubbing into skin with finger is highly recommended instead of applying to a spot and rubbing wrists/arms together. This method allows for the gardenia essence to be highly concentrated in one spot and it will last much longer with this application technique. <span style="font-size: x-small;"></span><br /><br />This fragrance may solidify in very very cold
temperatures.
Should this occur, you may hold the vial vertically in a hot water
bath for approximately 5 to 6 seconds and perfume will liquify quickly.
Make sure water does not come
near cap or get into the vial. You may also wish to liquify your
essence when you have used most of it up so that you can capture any of
the remaining floral wax that clings to the side of the glass. An image
of the room temperature versus liquified essence has been added to the
listing for reference. It is NOT necessary or recommended to liquify
your essence for every use.</span></span></span><br />

are doing a release on this Saturday, May 4th at 6 p.m. EST. offering several new scents
including 3 naturals and 2 reformulated scents.<br /><br /><br /><span style="color: #38761d;">GARDENIA ENFLEURAGE .25 ml PREMIUM SAMPLES</span><br />(Gardenia
sold in premium samples only. These are our regular perfume sample
vials filled 1/4 of the way full. See diagram below. There is a limited
quantity. This stock is from our 2012 enfleurage process. We are
currently enfleuraging many more gardenias for 2013. Due to limited
stock, we are only offering premium samples for all who would like to
experience this amazing flower. It will be more expensive than our
typical perfume samples due to the intense amount of labor and thousands
of gardenia petals involved. Read on for more details about this
amazing essence and the process).<br /></b></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b><br /><br /><br />Solstice
Scents is proud to offer gardenia essence from our homegrown
pesticide-free gardenia flowers. Three different gardenia varieties (<i>Gardenia jasminoides, Gardenia brighamii </i>and<i> Gardenia radicans</i>)
were used to create this 100% natural essence. Utilizing the
principles of the centuries-old practice of enfleurage, we developed a
unique technique to capture the fragrance of creamy white gardenia
flowers in full bloom.<br /><br />Enfleurage requires thousands upon
thousands of gardenia petals to be infused in fat (vegetable source).
Each tray takes multiple infusions and the petals must be replaced
frequently. It is a very laborious process and this first step mandates
a minimum of 6 weeks of dedication during the gardenia blooming season,
which occurs mid-April to the beginning of June. The flowers are
hand-harvested each morning for maximum potency. The premium samples
offered on this listing are from our 2012 batch of flowers. We are
currently working on enfleuraging the gardenias that are now blooming
and the 2013 batch will be available in the future. <br /><br />Due to the
amount of time, effort and dedication required in this process,
enfleurage is rarely practiced today. Processing thousands of petals
only yields a very small amount of precious absolute, making it
impractical for the commercial market. It is a true labor of love.
Solstice Scents is one of only a few companies in the world to offer
this rare fragrance. <br /><br />This highly concentrated perfume is milky
white in color and presented in perfumer's alcohol. You'll experience a

distillation meaning that there is no such thing as gardenia essential

delicate fragrance and yields a product that does resemble a gardenia
aroma with much heavier green notes but is nowhere near as realistic as
the gardenia aroma produced via enfleurage. Our process captures the
character of the flower as closely as possible, exuding the sweetness of
the velvety white petals with a very delicate and subtle green note.<br /><br />This
perfume is for natural essence enthusiasts who have wished for a
true-smelling gardenia fragrance. It does not have the longevity and
sillage of its synthetic counterparts and after 15 to 30 minutes its
profile tends to hug closer to the skin. Most people should experience

Oil was originally offered as a scrub in our autumn collection. I have
formulated this scent to be enjoyed as a perfume. It is solely
comprised of essential oils and absolutes. It is a deep, earthy, rich
and citrusy fragrance. The cocoa, patchouli and mushroom absolute
provide a dark, dank base for the bright blood orange and mandarin
essential oils. A touch of labdanum adds a subtle sticky resinous
quality to the scent. The cocoa and chocolatey-earthy smelling
mushroom absolute combine with the orange to lend this scent a strong
gourmand quality while the aged patchouli adds a deep musky and sooty
character. The coffee EO in this blend is very subtle and works to add
to the rich base.<br /><br />The blood orange and mandarin oils give a
citrusy burst to the initial application. The citrus is prominent for
about 20 minutes or so. The dry down is dark, earthy and sweet with a
slight hint of citrus. This fragrance contains a very small amount of
tonka bean absolute as a fixative. <br /><br />Midnight Oil is blended in
perfumer's alcohol. Please shake gently before each use as the cocoa
absolute will settle to the bottom. A few shakes will quickly and
easily disperse the scent evenly. Unisex.<br /><br />Cocoa absolute may
stain lighter colored clothing and skin. When applying perfume, rub
perfume in quickly as it is easier to work into skin with less chance of
staining. </b></span></span><br />

Absolute, Myrrh EO, Pink Pepper EO, Black Pepper EO, Tonka absolute,
Buddha Wood, Tobacco absolute, Coffee EO, Guiacwood, Rosewood EO, etc.<br /><br /><br />SHAKE BEFORE EACH USE AS PRODUCT WILL SETTLE. NOT FOR USE BY WOMEN WHO ARE PREGNANT OR NURSING. <br /><br />I'm
obsessed with this scent. It is so unique and avant garde and I'm
thrilled with how it came out. I'm not putting all of this on the
listing but wanted to mention it here.<br /><br />A mix of vices: dark
chocolate, black coffee and cigarettes wrapped in a worn leather bomber
jacket and staked out in a tan '72 Buick Skylark on a humid night.
Radio static white noise crackling through the speakers, cigarette ashes
on the car door. Later: a dark office. Neon lights cut sharply through
the shadows. The hot bulb of the film projector heats up. Rotating
reels emanate the familiar smell of warm celluloid and dust motes,
flying just inches away from the lens.<br /><br />Private Eye is a raw,
gritty and unusual fragrance that radiates atmosphere and mystery. This
inspired scent is spicy, earthy, sweet and slightly smoky with the
faintest trace of leather. An all natural blend of resinous myrrh, rich
cacao, effervescent pink pepper, black pepper, tobacco absolute, coffee
essential oil, choya loban, guaiacwood, tonka bean, aged patchouli,
rosewood and the woody, candied clove-like scent of buddha wood
essential oil, Private Eye seeks to take you on a suspenseful journey
full of mystery, into a dark and tangled world of unraveling secrets.<br /><br />This
is a very complex scent. Multiple notes arise on initial application: a
blast of pink and black peppers, chocolate and coffee are followed
quickly by heavy, resinous myrrh. Immediately thereafter the bright
rosewood emerges, hovering above a gloriously smooth worn leather and
smoke blend. After a few minutes you can still pick out several of
these notes but the spicy buddha wood begins to edge up next to the
rosewood. After this stage, the blend will develop a slightly sweeter
profile while still remaining dark and complex. The spicy notes remain
throughout the life of the perfume and are dominant, particularly the
buddha wood. After it has been on for a while the tonka bean will begin
to add a soft creamy caramelic note. Private Eye has incredible
staying power. Unisex.<br /><br />Cocoa absolute may stain lighter colored
clothing and skin. When applying perfume, rub perfume in quickly as it
is easier to work into skin with less chance of staining.<br /><br />Private
Eye contains spice oils. A slight warming sensation may be present on
initial application for individuals with sensitive skin. This should
not cause any great discomfort or be a lasting sensation. </b></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>SHAKE BEFORE EACH USE FOR BEST RESULTS<br /><br />Vanilla
Pipe Tobacco has been completely reformulated from its original
incarnation while preserving a general similarity and using several of
the same notes. It is offered in a rice bran carrier oil in lieu of
perfumer's alcohol. This blend contains vanilla fragrance oil, tobacco
absolute, tonka bean absolute and sweet clover absolute. It is a much
lighter. smoother and sweeter blend with tamer tobacco notes. <br /><br />On
cold sniff and initial application, a sweet, dry tobacco note blooms on
top of a beautiful vanilla base. The divine vanilla becomes stronger
the longer this perfume is on the skin. The coumarin hay-like note of
sweet clover absolute paired with warm tonka bean adds a dimension to
this scent that makes it smell exactly like a sack of moist fresh
vanilla flavored pipe tobacco. It is truly exquisite and a must try for
anyone looking for a realistic and wearable pipe tobacco fragrance
(unlit, not smoky). <br /><br />The longer Vanilla Pipe Tobacco wears on the
skin, the sweeter it becomes. VPT has good tenacity but hugs closer to
the skin. It is a very pleasing authentic scent that is amazing worn
alone or for layering. Unisex.</b></span></span><br />

similar, especially on the dry down, but it is a little smoother and
slightly softer. One of the primary oils in this blend was discontinued
by a supplier so I have modified it to contain many of the original

including several mild non-foody vanillas, golden amber, labdanum

identical. <br /><br />Pharaoh is a fragrance comprised primarily of the
long-established, popular and neutral scent of Egyptian Musk spiked with
just a few drops of Frankincense Essential Oil and a splash of honey
far in the background. It is a beautiful, very soft fragrance that is
perfect for wearing when you're looking for something understated and
muted but would like to smell clean. It is a truly wonderful unisex
fragrance that has a slight tinge of the exotic and is clean, fresh,
mild, natural and has just the slightest hint of a floral. The honey is a
very mild natural honey and does not contain the almond notes that
other honey blends have. A great neutral scent to have in your
collection. </b></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;"><b>Below
is the sneak peak of the Spring Collection for you guys. I'll most
likely post this information publicly tomorrow night (newsletter, blog,
etc.). For now, this is for your eyes only. <img alt="Smile" longdesc="2" src="http://illiweb.com/fa/i/smiles/icon_smile.gif" />
We are focusing primarily on returning fragrances from previous years'
collections, including several of the new scents that were offered for
2012 and one new perfume oil called Blossom Jam Tea Cakes. <br /><br />An
expanded Lavender Vanilla line will feature never before offered
products in this scent, as well as a restock of ganache. (More details
below). Also new for this year is Dellamorte in Burnishing Glace
format. The Alpha & Beta Hydroxy Fruit & Cream Masque will be
available again! This masque has been offered only one time before and
we thought it would be perfect to offer to perk up dull winter skin and
put your best face forward for spring (description of this masque at the
very bottom of the page). <br /><br />I'd also like to mention that another
small release with a few "darker" scents that don't have a thing to do
with spring will come out about 3 weeks after all of the spring goodies
have shipped. There is one very very special item we are finishing
testing now that I am praying will also be ready for release at that
time. But mums the word until I am 100% confident in said item.
*whistles* <br /><br /><span style="color: red;"><b> The release will take place on this Friday, April 5th at 6 p.m. EST.</b></span> at <a href="http://www.solsticescents.com/" target="_blank">www.solsticescents.com</a> </b></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;"><b><b> </b><br />Blossom
Jam Tea Cakes features the mouthwatering aromas of Petit Fours filled
with floral infused jams and preserves, enrobed in sweet fondant, warm
southern tea cakes topped with a delicate lavender buttercream and a
subtle waft of hot tea. A rich cakey base supports light floral and
fruit notes to create a beautiful atmospheric spring gourmand fragrance.<br /><br />Notes
include: yellow and white cake, honeysuckle absolute, palmarosa EO,
peach, strawberry, blood orange EO, lavender absolute, ylang ylang
absolute, buttercream, fondant. The floral notes listed may give the
impression that this is a heady floral but it's not. Rather, the floral
notes were used with restraint and were intended to infuse the delicate
fruit notes to create an interpretation of floral jams and preserves
thinly spread on fluffy cakes. A very unique fragrance that should
please fans of scents like Rose Mallow Cream, Chantilly Cream and the
Manor Collection's Kitchen fragrance. <br /><br /><i>Perfume only due to high cost of natural ingredients used.</i><br /></b></span><br />

is a dual concept fragrance that brings together the airy, sweet and
refreshingly tart taste of Lemon Chiffon pie and the elegant, wispy and
equally airy beauty of chiffon fabric. A very special top-shelf,
perfectly sweet and non-cloying vanilla (one of the vanillas in
Nightgown) provides a base for a delicate touch of white amber and white
musk. Chiffon is completed with the bright and uplifting scent of pure
lemon myrtle essential oil. The lemon myrtle is one of the dominant
notes on cold sniff and initial application. It will recede within 5 to
10 minutes and allow the other notes to emerge. Unlike most lemon
essential oil top notes that disappear fairly quickly, lemon myrtle EO
has a strong lemon-like scent but also a very good staying power. Lemon
Myrtle is distilled from the leaves of a native Australian Tree. As it
fades and takes a back seat to the other notes a wonderful, sweet,
ethereal and beautiful long-lasting scent is left behind. The longer
Chiffon is on the skin, the sweeter it gets. The vanilla is the longest
lasting note of the blend and takes on a glorious whipped cream and an
almost marshmallow note the longer it is on the skin. A really lovely
and sophisticated scent! Fans of some of our other scents like
Nightgown, Snowshoe Pass, Rose Mallow Cream and Manor should really
enjoy Chiffon.<br /><br />While Chiffon is overall a scent that smells light
and airy like clouds, it also is pretty strong and seems to grow
stronger the longer it is on the skin so apply a modest amount on your
first try and let it sit for about 45 minutes to gauge how much you will
need for future applications.<br /><br />Do not apply Chiffon Glace after a
hot shower and avoid spraying on or near cuts, rashes, wounds or broken
skin as the lemon myrtle will sting. If you have sensitive skin you
may wish to use Chiffon Glace as a Body Oil only and avoid using it in
the bathtub as a Bath Oil.<br /><i><br />Perfume, Burnishing Glace</i></b></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;"><b><br /><br /><br /><b>CHANTILLY CREAM<br />WHIPPED CREAM, VANILLA, PEACH NECTAR & YELLOW MANDARIN EO</b><br /><br />Our
Chantilly Cream is white fluffy whipped cream sweetened with vanilla
and just a touch of peach nectar. A light addition of lovely yellow
mandarin essential oil tempers the juicy peach note. The primary notes
in this blend are the whipped cream and a blend of vanillas and they are
also the longest lasting. The peach nectar and yellow mandarin are
more detectable in the cold sniff of the blend and are very subtle on
the skin and add a juicy touch to the more dominant scent of the whipped
cream accord. This fragrance is best judged not on cold sniff or
immediately after application but after about 5 to 7 minutes of morphing
before its true scent is revealed. It will become sweeter the longer
it wears and the fruit notes will eventually recede completely.<br /><br />Chantilly
Cream has a profile that is very light, sweet and delicate. It hugs
very close to the skin and is intended for a gentle skin sweetening
treat when you wish to wear something a little lighter and less heady
near those sensitive to fragrance, in the work environment or just
because you want to indulge in something a little softer in scent and
throw. It is a versatile scent that would pair and layer wonderfully
with fragrances in your collection that contain notes of coconut, cake,
fruit, vanilla or even select floral scents (white florals such as
jasmine, tuberose and lily especially). It layers nicely with Chiffon
too! <br /><br /><i>Perfume, Burnishing Glace</i><br /></b></span><br />

ON THE 5ML PERFUME BOTTLES: This perfume will be offered in the clear 5
ml bottles (like Rose Mallow Cream is in) as we are unable to get the
blue ones at this time. The roller ball occasionally needs to be coaxed a
little more to encourage the fragrance out. You may do this be
removing cap, gently holding your bottle upside down (with bottom
pointing toward ceiling and ball toward ground) and giving the bottle a
good hard shake or two. Roll the ball across your skin and if perfume
is not free-flowing, repeat this process.<br /><br />(Shake bottle well
before each use. One of my top faves.) Cascade of Gold is an utterly
amazing, 100% natural and exquisite blend of essential oils, absolutes
and Indian attars blended in our rice bran carrier oil. Notes of
sandalwood, white sandalwood, honeysuckle, champa and white lotus
combine to form a divine and meditative scent that is also very sensual.
Cascade of Gold has a base of exotic incensey woods with a very strong
amber note that has subtle balsamic undertones. The floral notes are
delicately blended so as to add just the right exotic touch to the warm
wood and amber notes. It smells like bottled sunset with the last of
the days' golden orange rays peeking out mixed with humid deep south air
that has been perfumed by a concentration of mid spring blooms. You
can almost literally feel a warmth radiating from your skin with this
scent on. The champa is the finest quality I've found and it
contributes a delicate edge of spice to the blend as well. The florals
serenely float at the top of the blend adding a velvety white note for
the first 10 minutes. Their voice becomes softer and evolves to a
relatively stable blend without morphing that smells warm, sweet,
ambery, golden, robust, full bodied, exotic, floral and extremely sexy.
Cascade of Gold would make a wonderful blend for yoga, meditation,
scrying or just before bed as it has a natural harmony and almost trance
inducing properties. <br /><br /><i>5ml Perfume only.</i></b> <b><br /><br />SAMPLES
FOR PREMIUM SCENTS: Due to the high cost of some of the ingredients,
our perfume sample vials will remain at $2.50 but will be 1/4 of the way
full. This way we will be able to sell them in all of our sample pack
listings and won't have to have a separate premium sample only listing
at a higher cost. <br /></b></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;"><b><br /><br /><br /><b><br />LAVENDER VANILLA<br />Lavender Essential Oil, Lavender Absolute & Sweet Creamy Vanilla</b><br /><br />This
fragrance takes the wonderful calming fragrance of Lavender Essential
Oil and a touch of Lavender absolute and pairs it with sweet creamy
vanilla and smooth French Vanilla for the Solstice Scents' take on this
ever popular combination. A relaxing and smooth blend for those who like
their Lavender Essential Oil tempered by a sweet partner. The lavender
essential oil starts out powerfully, then descends into the background
as the creamy vanilla emerges. After some time on the skin, the vanilla
takes center stage as the primary and lasting note, enhanced by a
ghostly memory of lavender.<br /><br /><i>The perfume is a part of the
General Catalog but Lavender Vanilla Ganache will be restocked and the
following products will be available for the first time ever: Burnishing
Glace, Whipped Soap and Salts. Salts topped with dried lavender buds.</i><br /></b></span><br />

Trees, more commonly known as Bottle Trees, are believed to be able to
capture evil spirits and are commonly placed outside of the home in an
effort to dissuade the evil spirits from entering the home. They're
commonly thought to originate in Africa but similar lore has been found
in other countries around the world. Bottle Trees are popular in the
south, especially in the low country, where they adorn home gardens as
folk art pieces and perhaps serve a greater purpose for the
superstitious. <br /><br />Delicate white flowers, soft vanilla and
sandalwood. Fans of Spellbound Woods and gentle florals will enjoy this
scent as the smooth and subtle woodsy base is comprised of Spellbound,
Sandalwood EO, Sandalwood FO and Amyris EO which marries beautifully to
the sweet jasmine blooms and elegant lily of the valley that lay in an
intoxicating blanket on top. <br /><i><br />Perfume, Ganache, Glace, Whipped Soap</i><br /></b></span><br />

Lilac blossoms in the foreground combine with faint traces of cascading
wisteria and subtle, fresh, green grass notes. Contains a blend of
fragrance oils and African Bluegrass EO to create a sweet, creamy and
gorgeous floral. The dry down is an intensely beautiful and very
wearable floral that smells true to the light purple flowers that
inspired it.<br /><i><br />Perfume, Ganache, Glace, Salts & Whipped Soap</i></b></span><br />

Bath Soak With Essential Oils of Petitgrain, African Bluegrass,
Michelia Alba, Ylang Ylang Extra, Sandalwood & Virginia Cedarwood</b><br /><br />NOT TO BE USED BY WOMEN WHO ARE PREGNANT OR NURSING.<br /><br />The
Carolina Wren is the inspiration behind this bright spring scent. A
small brown bird with a beautiful white stripe above each eye and light
yellow markings on the chest and belly, the Carolina Wren only measures
up to 6 inches in adulthood. Wrens are common residents in our home
garden and they have the most beautiful song. They are monogamous,
inquisitive, playful and frequently nest in garages and hanging plants.
The wren is frequently found on our windowsills and can be seen darting
around in the jasmine outside of the Solstice Scents workshop. They
have no trouble cohabiting near humans and are wonderful companion birds
that bring joy to any garden.<br /><br />Wren is made with essential oils
of petitgrain, African bluegrass, michelia alba, ylang ylang extra and a
small touch of sandalwood and Virginia cedarwood. 100% pure essential
oil blend. The fragrance is primarily tart, citrusy, herbaceous and
slightly woodsy petitgrain. It is VERY strong on cold sniff but is much
more gentle and nuanced in the tub. Petitgrain oil is extracted from
the leaves or branches of the orange tree but smells quite different
from orange essential oil. It smells closer to the scent profile of
neroli. It has a bright and uplifting aroma and if it were a color, it
would be the color of a Wren. Petitgrain is indicated for stress related
conditions and insomnia. The other essential oils in the blend are
mild and add depth. African bluegrass has an amazing grassy scent,
michelia alba is a tangy floral with a green note. Topped with
shredded aspen and moss.<br /><br /><i>Salts only. </i><br /></b></span><br />

Millhopper is a unique geological formation that is 120 ft. deep and
500 ft. across at the rim. It has over 230 steps descending into its
heart. The sinkhole's name comes from its funnel-like shape which
resembles a grist mill's hopper in which grain was held. Early settlers
found fossilized animal remains and shark's teeth at the bottom and
along the craggy walls leading them to believe that this was the place
where bodies were fed to the Devil. Devil's Millhopper has a lush
primitive environment with fern, moss, lichen, rare plants and a variety
of trees. There are several small caves and waterfalls which flow into
the basin below. The water then travels to an underground river which
leads to the Florida aquifer.<br />This scent contains notes of heather,
oakmoss and an assortment of woods used to interpret the atmosphere of
Devil's Millhopper. On cold sniff it smells of fern, new spring leaves,
moss and grass with heather and soft woods lurking just below. On
initial application, the green top notes quickly subside and the fresh
cool-toned floral note of heather and delicate woods emerge. Dry down
is soft, fresh and hugs close to the skin. A very unisex scent.<br /><br />A
blend of heather, African bluegrass EO, hinoki wood EO, oakmoss
absolute, ho wood EO, sandalwood, rosewood EO, Virginia cedarwood EO
& muhuhu EO.<br /><br /><i>Perfume only.</i></b></span><br />

carnations placed upon winter's tomb, sheltered in an oak hammock in
which the first signs of spring's new growth has begun to emerge.<br /><br />A
complex blend of fragrance and essential oils, Dellamorte features
dominant notes of oak and white carnation with supporting notes of
sandalwood, oakmoss, Egyptian musk, vanilla, hyacinth and a small amount
of violet absolute, vetiver and bergamot. On initial application,
Dellamorte starts out with a bright burst of fresh green notes, dew
kissed carnations, delicate creamy woods and a sweet element from the
Egyptian musk and vanilla combination. It stays relatively strong for
about 15 minutes then smooths out into a sweet, woodsy and velvety scent
with the carnation still present, though more gentle, with a subtle
green note and a tiny hint of spice.<br /><br /><i>Perfume and available for the first time in Burnishing Glace</i></b></span><br />

<b><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;">VIOLET MALLOW<br />
<span style="color: black;">Marshmallow Cream, Violet Flowers, Vanilla Bean, White Musk. <br />
<br />
Violet Mallow smells like sweet, creamy, slightly powdery and fresh violets. It is a
timeless, classic and elegant scent. Sophisticated, yet soft and
wearable with a vintage flair. This fragrance starts out with a stronger
violet note
upon initial application, though the sweet creamy marshmallow is there
to soften it from being too dominant. The dry down is very fluffy and
comforting and the
violet does remain in the background through most of the wear, though in
a subdued fashion. The
vanilla and white musk are very very subtle and far in the background.
It has a similar "white" scent to that of Snowshoe Pass without the full
bodied white musk that is in that blend. The white musk is used
sparingly in Violet Mallow so
what you will smell is primarily the violet paired with decadent marshmallow cream. A very pretty
and romantic fragrance!<br />

<b>Moroccan Rose absolute, Bulgarian Rose absolute, Marshmallow Fluff, Strawberry Nectar, White Chocolate, Vanilla, White Musk.</b><br />
<br />
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold;"><br />This
fragrance smells like candied rose petals! On initial application, the
rose and strawberry notes are apparent though well wrapped in a healthy
dose of marshmallow goo. This is sweet, sexy candy. Only natural
rose absolute is used in this blend, no synthetic rose notes. The rose
is apparent for approximately an hour but this scent gets sweeter and
leans more toward the marshmallow
and white chocolate with a delicate hint of white musk the longer it
wears. Though this fragrance is highly concentrated, Rose Mallow Cream
dries down to a sensual sweet scent that hugs
closer to the skin and does not have strong sillage. You may find that
its soft and sweet dry down is a good option for
work places that don't allow strong scents. Liberal application is
recommended for best results. Rose Mallow Cream is a wonderful personal
scent for you or a very close partner
looking for a little rose-mance...<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Premium 5 ml perfume only.</span>
We
can no longer purchase the blue 5 ml roll on bottles so the premium line
will be offered in clear bottles until further notice. Samples of this
perfume will be available for sale as well but please remember, the
Premium Perfume samples are filled 1/4 of the way up and not a full
vial. </span></div>

sweet and smoky scent reminiscent of the smell of chimney smoke in the
cold winter air and the comforting aroma of the fireside. There are
layers to the smoke accord created in this scent. It is rich and warm
and smells of campfire smoke that clings to your clothes and burning
woods with a hint of soot, char, ashes and glowing embers all at once.
The sweet marshmallow adds a creaminess that rounds out the strong smoky
profile. Lapsang Souchong C02 (smoked tea), precious fossilized amber
resin, sweet guaiacwood, golden resinous labdanum, wood smoke, fluffy
marshmallows and a touch of nutmeg essential oil combine to provide an
extremely atmospheric and delectable experience. <br /><br />Initial
application of this scent is very smoky, akin to burning wood and
campfire smoke with a little sweetness underneath and a whiff of nutmeg
essential oil. After a few minutes the smoke softens and the moderate
sillage will gently waft around you through the length of its wear,
smelling like a distant fire on the wind. The marshmallow does become
stronger, sweeter and more apparent the longer this wears on the skin.
Smoky Mountain Mallow will take you on an amazing scent journey!</span></span></span></b></div>

oil has been reformulated from the original blend as of 2013. It
smells very close to the original, almost identical. Pharaoh is a
fragrance comprised primarily of the long-established,
popular and neutral scent of Egyptian Musk spiked with just a few
drops of Frankincense Essential Oil and a splash of honey far in the
background. It is a beautiful, very soft fragrance that is perfect for
wearing when you're looking for something understated and muted but
would like to smell clean. It is a truly
wonderful unisex fragrance that has a slight tinge of the exotic and is
clean, fresh,
mild, natural and has just the slightest hint of a floral. The
frankincense is very soft and detectable solely upon application.
After
that, it takes a back seat and really is more of a note adding depth
rather than one standing as identifiable. The honey is a very mild
natural honey and does not contain the almond notes that other honey
blends have.</span></span></b></div>

is the Fragrance-Free version of our Burnishing Glace. It contains a
greater quantity of oils from the original recipe to offer a more
moisturizing experience than its scented counterparts, which are
primarily fragranced body mists that offer minimal moisture unless used
in the bath. Ghost is not greasy, sprays easily on to skin and soaks in
readily. If you wish to lightly moisturize an area, mist once or
twice, rub into skin and allow a minute for glace to soak in. For more
intense moisture, repeat this process. Do not over-saturate your skin
initially as it will take longer to soak in. Leaves skin soft, supple
and with a subtle dewy sheen. Not to be used on face. Shake gently
before each use. Ghost glace is wonderful to use after shaving or on
top of any of our ganaches to offer additional moisture. </span></span></b> </div>

<b>The Solstice Scents Winter 2012 collection will be released this Saturday, December 1st at 5:00 p.m. EST. We are bringing back many scents that have been a staple in our winter line for years, along with the return of all scents from the 2011 winter collection. The 2011 collection was primarily inspired by pioneers and the American Frontier. With scents like Flintlock, Outpost, Sugarvale and Snowshoe Pass, you will be able to experience a unique interpretation of winter fragrances while classic comfort scents like Spiked Nog & Nutmeg and Gingerbread & Vanilla Cream are offered for those who like a more traditional fragrance in their scent wardrobe. </b><br />
<br />
<b>The past few releases have run relatively smoothly without any site crashes or checkout troubles. In order to keep things running smoothly, if you are able to delay your order by an hour or longer, please do so. With all customers jumping on at exactly 5 p.m. to browse and shop, the site can run painfully slow or crash, which can be very frustrating for everyone. </b><br />
<br />
<b>We have plenty of inventory and it is rare that we sell out of anything in the first 48 hours. If you are looking to purchase perfumes only, we have more than enough and even if we sold out, which is unlikely, we have plenty of perfume to decant more and restock the shop asap after the initial release orders have shipped. The only thing that is in limited supply is the Black Christmas soap and Rice Pudding & Rum Soaked Raisins perfume. The Rice Pudding & Rum Soaked Raisins is a limited release with no samples offered. One of the oils in this blend has been discontinued so we will be listing the entire batch online and when it sells out, it is gone for good. I will make more of things if they sell out, based on demand for a particular product. We made loads of inventory and are ready to fulfill your personal and holiday gift purchases! </b><br />

I added a touch of special pink peppercorn essential oil, black pepper essential oil, guaiacwood and Lapsang Souchong C02 (smoked tea) and slightly reduced the leather note, though it is still very detectable. The result is a little smoother and more exotic than the previous, though the overall scent is almost identical to the original.</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Russian Caravan is a blend of smoked black teas and black leather with
just a hint of fruity pomegranate and black currants, pink peppercorn
and exotic amber. It smells primarily of the smokey tea and leather
and has a masculine edge due to these components. The amber is not
readily apparent until it has been on the skin for some time and at
that point the scent is mostly that of a soft tea and amber. It lends
itself to smoothing the blend out and taking the edge off of the
harsher dominant notes. The fruits and peppercorn add a subtle twist
and slightly sweeten the blend. On skin the combo takes on a note of
tobacco leaf as well. <br />

<b>DARK GINGER SPICECAKE<br />
Gingerbread, Woodsy Musk, Patchouli EO and Vetiver EO</b><br /> </b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><b>Gingerbread Cookies crash into a
dark earthy corruption of Patchouli and Vetiver Essential Oil and a
dark Woodsy Musk. The scent is primarily that of warm gingerbread
cookies laying on top of the other three components that serve to
temper the sweetness a bit and add dark and mysterious depth. It is
not a supremely heavy blend despite the use of patchouli, musk and
vetiver. All three are detectable but not overwhelming. This is
perfect for those of you who like your foodie blends a little darker. One of my personal favorites! (Formerly known as Gingerdead Man).<br />

<b>GINGERBREAD & VANILLA CREAM<br />
The Scent of Gingerbread Cookies & Creamy Vanilla</b><br />
<br />
Warm gingerbread cookies with bakery notes of molasses, ginger,
cinnamon and cardamom blended with three different vanillas. This
perfume smells like soft gingerbread with a subtle edge of creamy
vanilla icing rounding our the spiciness of the gingerbread. The
vanilla notes are more obvious after a little time on the skin and
during the long-term dry down. A delicious scent to warm your spirit

<b>CEDAR & SIBERIAN FIR</b><br />

<b>NOT TO BE USED BY WOMEN WHO ARE PREGNANT OR NURSING.</b><br />
<br />
The intoxicating smell of woodsy cedar meets piney Siberian Fir
Essential Oil to create an absolutely wonderful soak reminiscent of a
forest. Cedar and Siberian Fir makes a wonderful fragrance for the
Winter Season and is also a wonderful woodsy fragrance for year-round
enjoyment! Made with 100% pure essential oils of Virginia Cedarwood
and Siberian Fir.<br />
<br />
The cedar and fir are both uniquely detectable and smell exactly like
you would imagine. The fir is the strongest note in the bath. This
has always been a big hit with my male customers, but is great for
ladies who don't care for typical sweet or floral fragrances too!<br />

<b>BLACK CHRISTMAS<br />
Bayberry, Spruce, Cedar and Clove Infused with Coal<br />
<br />
NOT TO BE USED BY WOMEN WHO ARE PREGNANT OR NURSING.</b><br />
<br />
Dashing through the snow<br />
In a one horse open sleigh<br />
O'er the fields we go<br />
Laughing all the way<br />
<br />
Yet what the shadows bring<br />
Are wolves with fierce appetites<br />
Circling while we sing<br />
There will be blood tonight<br />
<br />
Black Christmas is not a soap full of jovial laughter and merry wishes.
It is not tinsel, mulled cider and sweet baked goods. It is the
still, miserably cold winter night. Desperate, horrified and
vulnerable: your sleigh stuck in an embankment, hungry prowling wolves
catch the scent of your fear. A low growl issued from a distance not
far away sends you scrambling for cover, yet you can never hope to out
run them and survive.<br />
<br />
Primarily scented with bayberry and spruce, Virginia cedarwood is not
far behind and clove lies in wait in the background. A few drops of
orange are added to the blend, but not readily detectable, like a
stalker in the shadows. This soap is for the strong, brazen and wholly
fearless individual. The meek and timid should remain hidden under the
covers. Infused with pure black activated charcoal and crimson
glitter. Smells very similar to my Bayberry soap, though a little
darker. <br />

<b>SNOWSHOE PASS - <span style="color: #cc0000;">A Best Seller!</span><br />
White Amber, White Musk, Vanilla Accord, Peppermint Cream, Cold Winds</b><br />
<br />
A chilly white blend of an ethereal snow blanket and cold winter winds,
Snowshoe Pass combines pale white amber, delicate and smooth white
musk, a sweet touch of vanilla and a faint whisper of creamy cold
peppermint. The result is a unique take on a winter scent inspired by
heavy snows and desolate rural regions. On cold sniff and initial
application a creamy peppermint note is detectable as a top note,
though it is a careful addition that takes a backseat to the other
notes as it wears on the skin, ultimately receding entirely. There is
just enough peppermint to enhance the coolness of this plushly white
blend. The other notes swirl together to evoke not only a snow covered
landscape that may only be traversed with snowshoes and a pioneer
spirit, but the calm and intense silence after a snow deep in the wild.

Creamy milk chocolate bark studded with crushed cool peppermint

medley of chocolates, primarily milk chocolate, combined with a smooth
peppermint top note. The peppermint gradually fades the longer the

<b>FLINTLOCK<br />
TOBACCO, SADDLE LEATHER, VIRGINIA CEDAR, BLACK PEPPER, WOODS, BAYBERRY & EVERGREENS<br />
<br />
NOT TO BE USED BY WOMEN WHO ARE PREGNANT OR NURSING.</b><br />
<br />
A frozen expanse of untamed early America stretches as far as the eye
can see. The boughs of cedar and conifers are heavy with snow. Your
steed is laden with provisions, taking a slow measured pace through
this unfamiliar region. Subtle wafts of your last fire emanate from
your coat. Your saddle is warm and sturdy beneath you as your ride
with trusty musket close at hand, prepared for the uncalculated dangers
only the deep winter wilderness can oblige. <br />
<br />
Flintlock is an intensely dark, ominous, woody, smokey and slightly
coniferous blend. It is a combination of Tobacco absolute, saddle
leather, Virginia cedarwood, black pepper, sandalwood and a medley of
other woods with a touch of evergreens, bayberry and smoke that will
plunge you deep into a Pioneer's winter in the American frontier.
Flintlock is darker on cold sniff and initial application than on the
dry down. The evergreen and bayberry notes are very mild and primarily
detectable at this stage. The blend wears like a warm brown leather
jacket. It is woody, smokey and refined on the dry down. <br />
<br />
Those with sensitive skin may notice a mild cooling sensation on the
skin after using the whipped soap in the shower. This is from the
black pepper essential oil and subsides quickly based on our testing.
You may wish to do a test area before using all over if you're
concerned about having very sensitive skin and you may also wish to
avoid using in "sensitive areas" if so. I had no cooling sensation at
all after using all over and G only experienced the slight cooling
sensation about five minutes after his shower on his back and the back
of his arms. It only lasted a few minutes. <br />

<b>OUTPOST - <span style="color: #cc0000;">A Best Seller!</span><br />
Sugar Crystals, Spruce, Fir, Soft Woods, Bayberry, Mistletoe & Amber</b><br />
<br />
<b>NOT TO BE USED BY WOMEN WHO ARE PREGNANT OR NURSING.</b><br />
<br />
A beacon of light amidst cold, desolate wilderness. Pass through a
copse of young evergreens into a warm cedar cabin and thaw out under a
soft Afghan blanket by a blazing fire while sugared treats from the
kitchen fill the air. Notes include sugar crystals, spruce, fir, a
medley of soft woods including sandalwood, agar, cedar, aloeswood,
patchouli, guaiacwood, bayberry, mistletoe and a touch of amber.<br />
<br />
This complex and unique blend will take you on a morphing adventure,
not unlike Witch's Cottage from the Fall Collection, though Outpost is a
distinctly different blend. On cold sniff and initial application,
sugar encrusted evergreens emerge as the top note. The evergreen is
primarily detectable early in the life of the blend though remaining
ever-present in the since it is a wash off product which can retain the
top notes. The blend of woods emerges to greet the sugar crystals
after a few minutes with a hint of bayberry in mistletoe in the
background and the spruce and fir far behind. The dry down is a very
soft, warm, sweet and comforting blend with a tiny wisp of sweet smoke.
The green notes are very faint and barely detectable at this stage. <br />
<br />
Despite the evergreens and woods used, this is a very gentle blend of
soft woods as opposed to a dark, heavy, woodsy blend. The sugar keeps
it light-hearted and the other notes bring a festive winter impression
to mind. A mega morpher that is very fun to journey with when you're
outside on a cold day. Cool weather really brings the notes of
Outpost to life and enhances the blend. If you liked the complexity
and warmth of Witch's Cottage, with sweet juxtaposed next to herbal
and woods, you should like Outpost! <br />

<b>SUGARVALE<br />
Candied Pecans, Butterscotch, Buttered Rum, Brown Sugar, Maple Syrup, Hot Pralines & Milk Chocolate Cocoa</b><br />
<br />
Nestled in a mountain vale lies a small, quaint community with rustic
buildings housing friendly, hardworking people. A special delight
during the harsh and demanding winter season is the Sugarvale Candy
Kitchen in the middle of town. Smoke billows profusely from the
chimney of the confectioner's cabin. Aromas of candied pecans,
butterscotch, buttered rum, brown sugar, maple syrup, hot pralines and
milk chocolate cocoa fills the air across town, beckoning the
inhabitants inside to warm cold bodies and empty tummy's alike. <br />
<br />
On initial application and cold sniff, candied pecans emerge from the
mouthwatering golden notes mentioned above. The pecans subside leaving
the butterscotch, buttered rum, maple and brown sugar sweetening your
skin with just a hint of hot pralines. The milk chocolate hot cocoa
is not readily detectable but the chocolate note helps to round out
the blend from being too sweet, though this mix is toothsome and very
warm and delicious! <br />
<br />
<i>Available in Perfume, Ganache, Whipped Soap and Burnishing Glace. </i></b></span><br />

<b>NIGHT STAR<br />
Nutmeg, Patchouli, Frankincense, Myrrh, Woods and Lemon</b><br />
<br />
<b>NOT TO BE USED BY WOMEN WHO ARE PREGNANT OR NURSING.</b><br />
<br />
Ceremonial resins, patchouli, cold and spicy nutmeg, warm sandalwood
and a touch of lemon, orange and clove meld together to create a dark,
dry, resinous, earthy and spicy aroma.</b></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><b>If you enjoyed the 2011 version, you're going to LOVE this year's version! The nutmeg we used this year is a wonderful batch that aged and very fragrant. I also used a beautiful premium aged patchouli in place of the younger patchouli from last year. It's very smooth! I added just a touch more nutmeg to the scent but it smells very close to last year's version, almost identical, just more refined and well rounded due to the premium oils used.</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><b></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><b></b></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><b></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><b>
<br />
Cold sniff and initial application features a marriage of frankincense
and nutmeg essential oils hovering above grounding, earthy patchouli
essential oil. The nutmeg is divine, authentic and spicy and adds and
exotic mood to the blend. As the nutmeg and frankincense subside, the
dry myrrh essential oil comes forward with a very light lemon note.
All of the notes combine to form a dry down which is primarily
smooth patchouli with resinous myrrh, a whisper of citrus and woods and a
delicate bit of spices. <br />
<br />
<i>Perfume only. </i></b></span><br />

<b><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">They say every house has a story. The new scents in this collection focus on the story of the Manor. Manor was a fragrance initially offered in the fall collection of 2011. It was so well received that we added it to our permanent line up and it continues to be our top selling fragrance. This collection pays homage to this wonderful fragrance. Manor is described as t</span></span></span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;">he scent of a once grand estate, n</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;">ow disheveled, forgotten and left exposed to the elements. The faint s</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;">cent
of previous owners and their esteemed guests - exquisitely perfumed
ladies mingling with the intense rich and musky scent of smartly
dressed gentlemen - meets rich wood floors and heavy wooden doors long
since opened, decaying beadboard and Wainscot topped off with a thin
lay</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;">er of dust. It is very sophisticated and absolutely intoxicating. </span></b></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<b><span style="font-size: small;">Manor was not always derelict. It was once a beautiful property with exquisite furnishings, lush manicured gardens, an orchard, vineyard, a full staff and was the epitome of grandeur. Journey through the Manor when it was inhabited, to some of its most incredible rooms. Each fragrance has been carefully crafted to reflect the character of these rooms and is intended to be worn on its own. Consequently, each scent can also be layered with the Manor fragrance. I recommend, if using this technique, that you place a small dab of the Manor scent on first and apply the room of your choice on top, then rub into your skin. It is especially lovely layered with Library.</span></b></div>

<b><span style="font-size: small;">REGARDING SITE SLOWDOWN/CRASHING DURING A RELEASE: Before getting into the full descriptions for each room, along with the returning fragrance/product offerings, I want to address an important matter. If you have shopped with us during a seasonal release in the past, you will be familiar with the slow site, site crashing and checkout issues that can occur. During a release, our website experiences a tremendous amount of traffic and I fully expect it will crash since the fall release is always the most popular release of the year. I have made a ton of product but especially an ample supply of all the perfumes and perfume samples. We are also pretty well stocked on the majority of the other products. If you are able to wait to get on to the site for at least an hour to an hour and a half AFTER the release (or longer!) to place your order, I would strongly urge you to take that course of action. Don't even hop on to browse if you can help it during this time. All of this traffic will lead to a frustrating and stressful checkout process so if you are able to wait to order, please do so. It will go a lot more smoothly. The first successful order doesn't usually come through the clogged pipeline until a half hour after the release! As usual, I will be dialed in to my tech team for them to reset the server during the heavy traffic. The site crashed 3 times during the beginning of the summer release so I am prepared for something similar this release. I just wanted everyone (especially new customers that have never been through this before) to be aware of the difficulties right at release time. Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding. I know that it can be quite frustrating and I'm right there with you!</span></b></div>

bound in leather, is found on all four walls of the library. A
fireplace on the west wall features an intricately carved rosewood
mantle and heavy dark wood wainscoting adorns the walls beneath the book
laden shelves. Dying embers impart a soft smokiness in the room and

Library contains a blend of sandalwood EO and FO, agarwood, nagarmotha

copaiba EO, benzoin EO, rosewood EO, Plai EO, western red cedar EO,

gently before each use. An aged cedar chest filled with fine fabrics,
exquisite lace-overlay dresses, heirloom linens and crocheted tops,
forgotten in the attic of the manor house. The scent of this cedar
chest and the soft mustiness of stored linens with the beautiful, yet
faded, perfume of the owner still detectable upon the fabric is captured
in the Attic Perfume. A fine vanilla accord is paired with the most
gorgeous red cedar heartwood EO, aged sandalwood EO and osmanthus
attar. Attic starts out strong, with a burst of the cedar EO and
vanilla accord but mellows into a sweet, woody, slightly musty and dusty
fragrance that is exquisitely atmospheric. It shares some character
with the Manor perfume and fans of Manor may enjoy Attic, especially if
they like really gorgeous and true cedar essential oil. This cedar
smells just like an aged piece of dried cedarwood and pairs wonderfully
with the other notes on the dry down.</b></span></div>

<b><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span><span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-style: normal;"></span></span><span style="font-weight: bold;">Autumn
at the Manor features a bustling kitchen alive with the sweet scents of
fresh baked seasonal treats. Large windows bathe the kitchen and its
vast array of copper and cast iron cookery with light. A basket of
fresh-picked orchard fruits sits near the scullery, awaiting a
quick rinse before being sliced for rich lattice-topped pies. Warm
sugar-dusted sweets, pumpkin, flaky pastries filled with peach
preserves, sugar cookies, caramel and vanilla combine with a touch of
hay absolute, all embraced by a generous dose of sweet wood smoke to
bring you the Manor's fall kitchen experience. <br /><br />Kitchen is a
blend of 14 fragrance and essential oils that starts out with a burst of
sweet pumpkin followed by very gentle baking spices on initial
application. Juicy peach and a hint of frosting quickly follow with a
warm buttery pastry and soft sugar cookies underneath. The wood smoke
is generous but doesn't begin to emerge for about 15 to 20 minutes after
application. It does get stronger as it warms on your skin and the
fragrance begins to waft softly around you with the sweet wood smoke,
baking spices and mouth-watering baked goods. Kitchen is warm and
comforting, morphs wonderfully and the dry down is the essence of
autumn.<br /><br />The wood smoke is primarily detectable in the Perfume and
Burnishing Glace on the dry down. The Whipped Soap is strictly
gourmand, capturing the sweet pumkin, baked goods, soft spices and a
touch of peach with the wood smoke not being very apparent.</span></span></b></div>

Cellar of the Manor is constructed of stone and wooden beams. It
houses orchard fruits, wooden casks of estate wine and stores of broom
corn. The Cellar fragrance contains notes of oakmoss absolute, aged
patchouli EO, Virginia cedarwood EO, cool stone, red apple, Bartlett
pear, sweet clover absolute, hay absolute and guaiacwood.<br />
<br />
On initial application, Cellar has a very cool, wet stone and Earth
fragrance combined with a burst of red apple and fresh cut pear. The
hay and sweet clover rise shortly thereafter and lend an overall dryness
that tempers the sweetness of the fruit notes. The dry down is an
autumnal dirty/Earthy apple scent, devoid of spice notes, that has a bit
of warmth and dryness. The cool stone element is a top note that
dissipates shortly after application. When first applied, this element
of the fragrance is like a burst of coolness from when you first descend
into the cellar, which fades as you become accustomed to the air and
aware of the other scents in the room. The wood and patchouli notes add a
grounding earthiness that serves to deepen the other notes in the blend
without becoming a predominant patchouli fragrance. Unisex and
atmospheric.<br /> </span></span></b></div>

<b><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: orange; font-weight: bold;">MASTER BEDROOM</span><br /><span style="font-style: normal; font-weight: bold;"></span><span style="font-weight: bold;">Soft Musk, Sandalwood EO, Amber, Clove EO, Myrrh EO, Vanilla, Aged Patchouli EO, Champaca Absolute & Aged Sandalwood Attar<br />
<br />
Shake gently before
each use. The Master Bedroom is furnished with a luxurious canopied bed
featuring a red damask spread with black velvet flocking, ornate
mahogany furniture, ivory lace curtains and exquisite needlepoint wall
hangings. The room has a delicate, sensual, sweet, spicy and musky
scent. Notes of soft musk, sandalwood EO, amber, candied clove, dry
myrrh EO, aged patchouli EO and precious champaca absolute combine with
an amazing sandalwood attar that has been aged for 3 years. The aged
sandalwood is beautiful and creamy with a slight anise-like spice. <br />
<br />
On initial application, the clove is the first note to emerge but very
soon after the delicate musk, exotic champaca, airy vanilla, rich
patchouli and woods quickly follow. The resulting scent is warm, sweet
and exotic. The patchouli is carefully added so that Master Bedroom is
not a heavy scent. The clove dries down to lend spice without
dominating the other notes. This has a gentle long-term dry down scent with good tenacity and sensual yet sophisticated character. Unisex. </span></span></b></div>

Leaf EO, Fern, Amber, Sandalwood EO, Geranium EO, Violet, Orange
Blossom and Absolutes of Lavender, Oakmoss & Mimosa</span><span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-style: normal;"></span></span><span style="font-weight: bold;">The
Solarium of the Manor features a glass roof and walls to allow maximum
light exposure. Cascading plants tumble from terracotta planters while a
lush variety of fern can be found interposed between a variety of
herbs, blossoms, potted violets and orchids. <br />
<br />
The Solarium features a blend of rhododendron leaf EO, lavender
absolute, green notes of fern and oakmoss, rose geranium EO, geranium
bourbon EO, neroli, sandalwood EO, amber, mimosa absolute, violet and a
touch of tuberose. The resulting fragrance is a complex floral with
strong green and herbal overtones. If Solarium were a blend of colors,
its fragrance would be primarily purple and green tinged with gold. The
scent is incredibly unique. The rhododendron leaf and lavender are the
dominant notes, followed by a variety of fern. The other notes in this
blend add body and character without adding very heady and strong white
floral notes. Solarium is very strong upon initial application.
Rhododendron leaf is a fragrance like no other - herbaceous, creamy,
slightly floral and balsamic, it combines with the coumarin-rich
lavender absolute to provide a very cool-toned flower bed for the other
elements. This exotic full-bodied fragrance softens to a delicate,
herbaceous floral after about half an hour of wear. It doesn't morph a
great deal but it does dry down to a softer incarnation of itself.</span></span></b></div>

<b><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">All
six perfumes in the Manor Collection are available in a special box
set. We hand-stained each pine box with two coats of rich stain and
slightly distressed the box for a vintage look. All hardware (latch, hinges and screws) was removed and treated with an oil rubbed bronze finish to
give an antiqued appearance. The perfumes will come packaged in the
box, wrapped in a vintage handkerchief, with a card that denotes each
room with a brief description of each scent's primary notes. Every
handkerchief is different. Most feature an embroidered pattern of
flowers or herbs with the base color being ivory or white. These
handkerchiefs are of vintage quality and
therefore may contain slight imperfections such as a loose thread, a
very small area of discoloration (usually where a "Made In" sticker used
to be located on a corner) or a minute tear or tattered edge which
gives the hankie history and character. Each hankie will be a surprise
and is selected of our choosing to include in your set. The box is
intended to emulate the cedar chests used to store fine linens while
also representing one of the fragrances in the Manor Collection: Attic.</span></span></b></div>

<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<b><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Midnight Oil is solely comprised of essential oils and absolutes. It is a deep, earthy, rich and citrusy fragrance. The cocoa, patchouli and mushroom absolute provide a dark, dank base for the bright blood orange and mandarin essential oils. A touch of labdanum adds a subtle resinous quality to the scent. The cocoa and chocolatey-earthy mushroom absolute combine with the orange to lend this scent a strong gourmand quality while the patchouli (aged 5 years) adds a deep musky and sooty character. Offered as a Sugared Amber Whipped Cleansing Scrub which also contains a little coffee butter and raw cacao butter in addition to the shea, Virgin coconut and other oils in the scrub. The cacao butter is not denoted on the label but will be mentioned on the listing so please be aware for allergy concerns (though there is quite a bit of cocoa absolute as well). In use, the Midnight Oil blooms in the shower with a burst of earthy/Incensey orange. Huffing yourself during use IS advised. Does not leave behind much of a lingering fragrance (unless you use it a few times in one area, then it seems to leave a subtle scent behind) so you can move on to other fragranced products out of the shower. It's mouthwatering: foody yet dark! Rich warm tan color of this scrub comes solely from the essential oils used. Cocoa absolute, patchouli and mushroom absolute are all very dark oils.</span></span></b></div>

</span><br />
<br />One of Autumn 2011's best sellers returns! Upon entering the Witch's Cottage you are greeted wit</span><span style="font-size: 100%;">h
fresh and dried herbs, chamomile flowers, rosemary sprigs, Sweet
Annie, Davana and a hint of crisp apples. A warm undercurrent of
luscious baked goods, sweet buns and ca</span><span style="font-size: 100%;">ndied pralines emerges and is followed by mild fragrant woods and sweet hearth smoke. Witch's Cottage fragrance is</span><span style="font-size: 100%;"> a true journey with loads of atmosphere.
<br />
<br />On initial application the herbs emer</span><span style="font-size: 100%;">ge with the sweet bak</span><span style="font-size: 100%;">ed goods hovering just below. The apple and herbal top notes (namely the cha</span><span style="font-size: 100%;">momile
and Sweet Annie) retreat within a few minutes to make way for brown
sugar and caramel heavy baked goods. The sweet note is a collection of
a variety of different sugary treats but the overall scent is not
cloying - rather a vague, well blended impression of baked goods that
adds a rich warmth to the blend.
<br />
<br />Further journeying into the cottage will take you to the warme</span><span style="font-size: 100%;">st,
most fragrant and exotic soft woods touched by a wisp of divine
incense and sweet hearth smoke. The long term dry down is that of the
woods and sweet smoke and is a very warm, comforting and alluring
fragrance. A definite morpher that is also very interesting, unique
and complex scent. It wears close to the skin and encourages snuggling
into the couch in front of a blazing fire with a gr</span><span style="font-size: 100%;">eat book and a mug of hot cider!

take a back seat to the woods. There is no fake berry smell here on

Bathory is not just a macabre novelty that
turns your bath water the color of watered down blood, it also contains a
powerhouse of antioxidant essential
oils, green tea powder and a silky blend of oatmeal and coconut milk
powder. It is a combination of essential oils of pink grapefruit, white
grapefruit, palmarosa, geranium bourbon, peru balsam, roman chamomile,
rosewood and jasmine with a just a few drops of jasmine fragrance oil.
The
fragrance is a light tart citrus coupled with a tea-like mild
floral. A relaxing bath best used before bed or to ease nervous
tension due
to the sedative properties in the chamomile essential oil. Sweet
grapefruit is the dominant note in the bath. For best results, add when
tub is almost completely full of water. <br /><br />Topped with dried rose
petals. Contains red 40 which turns bath water
red. Read full listing for more details.</span></span></div>

We will be listing our REMAINING INVENTORY of Harvest Moon and sadly discontinuing this long-time loved fragrances. Harvest Moon has been available since the first year we started selling online and has remained a popular fragrance in the shop. One of the oils in this blend is no longer considered skin safe, according to the manufacturer. It may have been reformulated or is now not skin safe due to the ever-changing IFRA regulations. As a result, we will be listing the very last of our inventory (as PERFUME ONLY) and will only be able to make Harvest Moon in a Home Fragrance oil from this point forward. Since I cannot purchase more skin safe oil and I do not have enough on hand to make enough concentrate for leave on products, ganache and glace will NOT be offered this year. I'm very sorry and disappointed. It seems like we've had to say goodbye to too many of our beloved fragrances recently. So grab the perfume while you can!

<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><b>Fall is the season for canning and preparing food stores and the home
and its inhabitants for the winter. The kitchen is abuzz with the
creation of homemade delights but the most prized at the Blackburn
Farmstead is the blackberry and boysenberry preserves made from berries
grown right on the farm. In the autumn, the family gathers around the
hearth to enjoy fresh made butter and jam on hot from the oven
buttermilk biscuits. The jam is also a euphoric experience on the
homemade fresh-churned vanilla ice cream!<br />
<br />
Blackberry Jam, Boysenberry Preserves, Vanilla Bean Accord, Creamy
Vanilla and a touch of Vanilla Musk. This scent is not quite as
"literal" of a foodie scent as the Blueberry Muffin Batter. It is a
blend heavy on rich vanilla (new to the shop, blended with a touch of
the vanilla bean accord featured in some of our other offerings this
season). The berries are primarily detected on cold sniff for the
perfume and whipped soap and initial application for the perfume and
glace. The ganache is a bit creamier and the vanilla is more in the
foreground, though the berries are detectable. With the ganache, the
dry down has the berries floating at the very bottom of an ethereal,
very feminine vanilla blend. The perfume and glace start out with the
delicious combination of berries laying on top of the gorgeous
vanillas. The dry down mirrors the ganache - sweet and creamy vanillas
in the foreground with a cool-toned blend of berries in the background,
rounding out the vanilla. We definitely recommend layering the ganache
and either perfume or glace to get the full effect of this fragrance.<br />
<br />
This is more of a "grown up" gourmand scent. Much in the way that
Aquolina Pink Sugar is very sweet and clearly has many sugary and foodie
notes but also has a hint of musk, Blackburn Farmstead follows in this
tradition in that it is very sweet, the vanilla and berries are true but
the touch of vanilla musk adds an edge that keeps it from being
straight up foodie and turns it from simply comforting to subtly sexy. <br />

a bit exotic and astringent frankincense oil. It has a deep,
herbaceous, woody, spicy, earthy and musky fragrance. The ylang ylang
contributes a sweet/light floral note and the patchouli is almost
undetectable, contributing more to the
overall fullness of the Seance fragrance rather than standing apart as
a strong note like the sage, clove and frankincense do. This very popular soap is being offered for the fall collection, after a long hiatus!</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><br /><br /><span style="color: #d52437;"><span style="color: black;"></span></span></span></span>TONIGHT
AT 6 P.M. EST, a few new products are being added along with a few
restocks and the remaining inventory of a few scents that will sadly be
discontinued.<br /><br /><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: mediumblue;">NEW PRODUCTS</span>:</span><br /><br />BLACK
FOREST Ganache, Burnishing Glace and Whipped Soap. Black Forest has
been a popular dark and woody gourmand scent that was originally
released for the V-Day Collection 2012 in perfume only. It has since
been added to the General Catalog as a perfume oil but we decided to
expand it into a few other products as part of our rotating General
Catalog of other bath and body products. What is a rotating General
Catalog? Most of our GC scents are available in perfume format. Many
of these fragrances have corresponding products such as Ganache,
Burnishing Glace, Whipped Soap, etc. These other bath and body products
are not always in stock but rather rotate in their availability so that
there are generally new things offered. We like to have the ability to
retire scents temporarily that have been in stock for a while or that
aren't as popular in order to make room for other products to be made.
As a two-person operation with a large catalog, this allows us the
ability to offer a lot of items on a rotating basis as our production
capacity allows. As a result, the new products in the Black Forest
fragrance will not be in stock every day of the year but will rotate in
availability as time and demand allows. It will be priced along the
lines of Manor due to some of the pricey ingredients involved in
creating this scent. <br /><br />Also NEW to the shop is the long-awaited
Alpha and Beta Hydroxy Fruit and Cream Masque! Some of you have been
hearing me threatening a release of this one for years. This new
masque is intended to be used as a once a week or bi-weekly reviver in
conjunction with your other skin care routine items. It is not to be
used as often as the Oatmeal, Coconut Milk & Honey Masque but
considered as a rich supplement. Hydroxy rich fruits such as
strawberry, moisturizing banana, pomegranate, mango, pumpkin and orange
peel are combined with creamy coconut milk. Hydroxys are believed to
help loosen dead skin cells, encourage new cell growth, soften skin and
improve tone. They may assist in softening scars and the natural
salicylic acid in fruits like strawberries may assist those with blemish
prone skin. Beta hydroxy is oil soluble which means that it can
penetrate into the skin better than the water soluble alpha hydroxy
acids. They can be especially helpful for cleansing clogged pores and
removing blackheads as well. Full details and directions will be on the
listing for this masque. It is not recommended for use prior to
prolonged sun exposure as while hydroxys may assist in helping sun
damaged skin, they also increase sun sensitivity. Sunscreen is
recommended after using this masque.<br /><br /><br /><span style="color: mediumblue;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">RESTOCKED ITEMS:</span></span><br />Rosemilk
Day Cream, Shoikan Grove Perfume, Violet Truffle Perfume, Violet
Truffle Ganache, Nightgown Ganache, Nag Champa Ganache and Nag Champa
Whipped Soap<br /><br /><br /><span style="color: mediumblue; text-decoration: underline;">DISCONTINUED FRAGRANCES:</span><br /><br />It
is with a heavy heart that the following fragrances will be
discontinued. Some of these are scents offered from near the start of
our business locally, some offered early on in our online career. One
of the oils used in these blends has been discontinued and I've yet to
find its like. I will attempt to reformulate some of these at some
point but there is no ETA on any of them as of yet. What I will have
listed tonight is all I have remaining of these scents. Most are in
very limited supply so if you really want any of them, I highly
recommend getting them while you can. Conjure is one I will definitely
try to reformulate but it will never smell exactly as it did, nor will
any of the others that may end up being reformulated. <br /><br />The
following scents (perfume roll-ons) will be listed for the last time in
their current incarnation tonight: Amber Rose Petals, Astral Temple,
Black Leather/Red Lace, Conjure, Cherry Vanilla Amberosia and
Travelers. All have been removed from the sample packs and the free
sample at checkout as we decanted everything left of these. I am so
sorry to disappoint anyone who loves these scents. I did not want to
discontinue any of them but I have no choice.<br /><br /><br /><div id="yui_3_2_0_1_13444425788262991" style="text-align: center;">

APPLICATION PRIOR TO EXTENDED SUN EXPOSURE. DO NOT APPLY GLACE IMMEDIATELY
AFTER A HOT SHOWER OR NEAR CUTS OR BROKEN SKIN AS LIKE LEMON JUICE,
LIME MAY STING AND USE CAUTION IF USING THIS SCENT IN THE BATH TUB! </span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><b style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><b style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Nighttime
island breeze carries sweet coconut flesh, delicate tuberose blossoms,
Tahitian Gardenia flowers, pressed lime juice and pink lotus blossoms.
Tropical Moon smells like an exotic beach paradise. It is sweet with
creamy white floral notes, a top note of lime and a subtle delicate pink
candy note from the pink lotus. Contains real tropical monoi (Tahitian
Gardenia blossoms infused in fragrant coconut oil), mouthwatering lime
essential oil, pink lotus attar and a blend of fragrance oils. Initial
application has equal parts of coconut and tuberose with the lime
hovering just above. The monoi and lotus are more subtle supporting
notes that add a little complexity. The lime burns off relatively
quickly in the leave on formats but does have a gentle presence in the
scrub and whipped soap. The dry down is a fairly constant blend of
coconut and tuberose without a great deal of morphing that translates as
a soft and creamy tropical fragrance. <br /><br />Tropical Moon is the
humid, torrid and sultry cousin of our popular Nightgown perfume. It is
a destination vacation in a bottle! You will be transported sea side
every time you wear it.<br /><br />The Sugared Amber scrub contains loads of Virgin Coconut Oil and a little extra Monoi! <br /><br /><span style="color: blue;"><br /><strong>CARDAMOM ROSE SUGAR</strong></span> (Premium 5 ml Perfume, Bar Soap)<br /></b></span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 8pt; font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-size: 8pt; font-style: normal;">NOT
TO BE USED BY WOMEN WHO ARE PREGNANT OR NURSING. SKIN TEST FOR
SENSITIVITY TO THE CARDAMOM SPICE OIL PRIOR TO SLATHERING ALL OVER. MAY
FEEL WARM UPON YOUR SKIN FOR THE FIRST FEW MINUTES AFTER APPLICATION.</span></span><br /><span style="font-size: small;"><b style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">A
warm candy-like blend of brown sugar, spicy green cardamom pods,
Moroccan rose absolute and Bulgarian rose absolute. It is luscious,
sweet and very enticing. On initial application, the rose and cardamom
are most apparent with the sweet brown sugar beneath. When applied
liberally, the cardamom will journey with you for a good 30 minutes to
an hour. The rose smells like candied rose petals. It is young and
gentle - not at all a matronly rose and not an assertive and
overpowering rose. It blends perfectly with the cardamom and brown
sugar. After about an hour the brown sugar is predominant, the cardamom
has receded and the roses are very subtle and tame. The long term dry
down is primarily a sugary, warm, brown candy scent. The scent is so
divine that you will want to reapply often and breath deeply! Cardamom
Rose Sugar is an alluring and romantic scent that smells almost edible.
The cardamom is added very liberally to this blend so it does not burn
off immediately as a fleeting top note. Skin test for sensitivity
prior to slathering all over as cardamom is a spice. It may feel
slightly warm upon your skin within the first few minutes of application
but you should notice this sensation dissipates very quickly. If you
are very sensitive, discontinue use. If you're not, slather it all over
your arm liberally and try not to eat yourself! If you like the brown
sugary tone in Blueberry Brown Sugar Muffin Batter and the Winter Scent
Sugarvale, you'll love Cardamom Rose Sugar!<br /><br />The Cardamom Rose
Sugar Soap smells primarily of Cardamom and Brown Sugar, though both
rose oils are included. The rose is very very subtle and just adds
body. Please test the soap in a discreet area for any sensitivity as
cardamom is a spice oil. It is recommended that you avoid use in
sensitive areas such as underarms and areas with mucous membranes. The
bar soap contains clove powder as well.<br /><br /><br /><span style="color: blue;"><strong>SIROCCO</strong> </span>(Premium 5 ml Perfume, Burnishing Glace, Sugared Amber Whipped Cleansing Scrub)<br /><br />Moroccan
spices, sandalwood, hot baked Earth, myrrh resin, precious saffron
threads and a touch of oud meld together to create a dry, woody,
resinous, spicy and extremely exotic scent representing the blisteringly
hot desert, spice caravans and never ending sun scorched sand. The
woods and spices on cold sniff and initial application quickly turn dry
and resinous as the myrrh and saffron boldly emerge. A hot
Mediterranean wind stirs desert sands, fusing with the incense wood
notes. Sirocco combines sandalwood essential oil and fragrance with a
real baked Earth Indian attar, myrrh and saffron essential oils and a
medley of spices. Sirocco does lean a bit masculine but it is a very
unique fragrance that Women would love to journey with as well. The
full experience is recommended with the perfume and Burnishing Glaces
where the dry resin, saffron, sand and woods are able to warm on your
skin and evolve. The Sugared Amber Scrub is a little bolder with the
spice and woods notes but is equally enjoyable.<br /></b></span><br />

timeless, sophisticated and genteel, Savannah is a glorious combination
of purple violet flowers, moss, tuberose, hyacinth, lily of the valley
and a hint of crisp and cool Bartlett pear. A scent that is at once
classic and mysterious, Savannah will have you recalling Victorian
architecture, Spanish moss-draped live oaks, private brick courtyard
gardens and strolls along impeccably manicured city squares. You may
even be transported to Bonaventure cemetery for a late night martini
with a certain voodoo priestess.<br /><br />Savannah opens with a burst of
fresh violet, mellow moss and delicate tuberose with the faintest
suggestion of rain in the background. The other floral notes and pear
are subtle. This is a very cool-toned, fresh and deep scent, perfect to
take the edge off the sweltering summer days.<br /><br />The Bath Salts are topped with our homegrown dried hydrangea and wisteria petals.<br /></b></span><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; margin: auto; text-align: center; width: 100%;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><b><a class="postlink" href="http://www.servimg.com/image_preview.php?i=279&u=14511691" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://i41.servimg.com/u/f41/14/51/16/91/tmperf11.jpg" /></a></b></span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><b style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /><span style="color: blue;"><br /><strong><br />TENEBROUS MIST</strong></span> (Perfume, Burnishing Glace)<br /><br />This
is the ominous foreshadowing of tumultuous weather to come. Wild seas,
terror-tinged skin musk, soft spices, faint wood smoke and a mocking
pleasurable sweetness. Tenebrous Mist is a complex blend featuring 16
components, each acting like crew members forming a strong cohesive
unit. It is sweet, salty, delicately spiced with a soft warm smokiness
and gentle blend of mild wearable musks.<br /><br />These 3 mild musks blend
with white amber, sea spray, sandalwood, Bay Rum EO, tea leaves and the
smoke of a fire smoldering unchecked to create an incredibly unique
fragrance. Tenebrous Mist is a unisex scent that wears like a second
skin.<br /><br /><br /><span style="color: blue;"><br /><strong>HONEYSUCKLE GREEN TEA</strong></span> (Perfume, Whipped Soap, Dead Sea Salt Oatmeal Milk Bath, Burnishing Glace)<br /><br />Thick
honeysuckle vines completely cover your garden fence and their
cream-colored blooms cascade in layers upon gorgeous layers. Their
sweet, soft and delicate fragrance is carried on the light breeze of a
balmy summer night. You languish on your back porch while listening to
Billie Holiday, splayed under a fan that is simply not powerful enough
for the heat. A refreshing glass of iced tea sits just within your
grasp, beads of cold sweat slowly rolling down its side. Time has
blurred and the days are long and lazy. This perfume captures the
experience of humid southern summers.<br /><br />Honeysuckle Green Tea
features a honeysuckle accord paired with a delicate and refreshing
green tea and a few drops of lemon myrtle essential oil. The result is a
very delicate floral with a hint of fresh tea. The lemon is very
subtle and adds to the light and elevating scent of this ethereal
combination.<br /><br />Honeysuckle salts are topped with dried calendula petals.</b></span><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; margin: auto; text-align: center; width: 100%;">

<span style="font-size: small;"><b style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /><br /><br /><span style="color: blue;"><strong>ROOT BEER FLOAT </strong></span>(Whipped Soap AND <span style="color: green;">Sugared Amber Scrub!</span>)<br /><br />The
perfect summer poolside and cool-down drink. Frosty root beer combined
with a hint of sweet and creamy vanilla bean ice cream in the
background. Smells just like the real thing!<br /><br /><span style="color: blue;"><strong><br />FLORIDA FRUIT STAND </strong></span>(Whipped Soap AND <span style="color: green;">Sugared Amber Whipped Cleansing Scrub!</span>)<br /><br />A
huge pile of cool ripe watermelons next to a giant crate of bananas
mixes with sweet orange and blood orange essential oils, tangerine
essential oil, strawberry and lemon. On cold sniff, it is a very cool
watermelon, citrus and banana scent with a hint of sweetness from the
subtle strawberry. Fresh and fruity and blooms wonderfully in the
shower!<br /><br /><br /><span style="color: blue;"><strong><br />KUMQUAT AND GREEN MANGO</strong></span>(Perfume, Burnishing Glace and Dead Sea Salt Oatmeal Milk Bath)<br /><br />Bright,
sweet and juicy kumquats paired with fresh sliced green mangoes. This
fragrance smells citrusy and a little green, reminiscent of the green
scent of a slightly under-ripe mango peel. It is fresh, fruity and
delicious!<br /><br />The salts are topped with dried lemongrass.<br /><br /><br /><span style="color: blue;"><strong>GULF BREEZE</strong> </span>(Perfume, Ganache, Dead Sea Salt Oatmeal Milk Bath, Burnishing Glace, Whipped Soap)<br /><br />Gulf
Breeze smells like sand, salt, wind and ocean. It is crisp, clean and
refreshing and is a wonderful unisex fragrance. Imagine standing on a
dock as a storm is about to roll in...the air is thick with energy and
as the sky turns grey you are splashed with salty spray from the gulf.
This is the scent of Gulf Breeze. It is a very fresh and oceany
fragrance with aslight hint of rain and a dominant note of seaspray.<br /><br />Gulf Breeze salts contain spirulina powder and are topped with dried hibiscus petals. <span style="color: red;"><strong>SPIRULINA CONTAINS IODINE SO DO NOT USE IF YOU ARE ALLERGIC!</strong></span><br /><br /><br /><span style="color: blue;"><strong>BAY RUM & VANILLA BEAN</strong></span> (Bar Soap)<br /><br />Rich
and spicy Bay Rum essential oil combines with the deep fragrance of
vanilla beans (think Cenobite). A timeless gentleman’s fragrance, bay
rum is a refreshing, uplifting and sensual fragrance that may also be
enjoyed by Women. This soap cures to a very dark brownish-black shade
due to the vanilla component of the scent. Also contains organic vanilla
bean flecks and virgin coconut oil. <strong><span style="color: red;">Avoid use in sensitive mucous membrane areas. Not for use by those sensitive to spice oils!</span></strong><br /><br /><br /><strong><span style="color: blue;"><span style="color: blue;">WINDOW BOX </span></span></strong>(Bar Soap)<br /><br />Not
for use by Women who are pregnant or nursing or for people with
epilepsy or high blood pressure (essential oil contraindications)<br /><br /><strong><span style="color: red;">Avoid
use in sensitive mucous membrane areas. The cornmint and rosemary are
cooling on the skin. Discontinue use if irritation or discomfort occurs</span></strong>.<br /><br />An
all-natural blend of essential oils of Lavender, Rosemary, Cornmint and
Marjoram. A wonderfully refreshing herbal soap with the skin-cooling
power of cornmint and rosemarymakes for an incredibly invigorating
shower! Perfect for use after a workout, if you’ve spent prolonged time
in the hot outdoors or when feeling sluggish. Window Box is a great
pick-me up that will revive you. No artificial colorant. Color from
alkanet root powder and titanium dioxide. Contains crushed peppermint
leaves and extra shea butter.<br /><br /><br /><span style="color: blue;"><strong>STRAWBERRY JAM & SWEET VANILLA CREAM </strong></span>(Bar Soap)<br /><br />This
soap smells just like strawberry jam with sweet and creamy vanilla
throughout. A wonderful soap for someone looking for a strawberries and
cream bar. It is scented with several different strawberry scents and
multiple vanillas to achieve this mix. Strawberry seeds running
throughout add to the authentic look.<br /></b></span><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; margin: auto; text-align: center; width: 100%;">

Garden is a blend of green and bright scents inspired by plants and
vegetables that grow seasonally and year round in our garden. The
fragrance is that of rubbed tomato leaf, grass and lettuce with a splash
of petitgrain. Petitgrain is an essential oil derived from the leaves
of the bitter orange tree. It has a green, dark citrus note. This scent
is very densely green but also fresh with a little bit of uplifting
brightness to it as well.<br /><br />The other notes used in this blend are
essential oils of cFrench arrot seed, katrafay, Mimosa absolute (in the
perfume only, not the whipped soap), rare lantana essential oil and a
touch of Egyptian musk and jasmine. It is perfect for those who love
green fragrances and anyone looking for a fresh summer fragrance.<br /><br /><br /><span style="color: blue;"><br /><strong>SUMMER COLLECTION PERFUME SAMPLE PACKS</strong></span><br /><br />FULL

<span style="font-size: 18px; line-height: normal;"><u><br /></u><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The Spring release will be held this <span style="color: #c27ba0;">Friday, April 27th at 6 p.m. EST</span> at solsticescents.com. Below is a preview of what will be offered. There are several returning scents from last year, new fragrances, and our new line of 5 ml (half the size of our standard roll ons.

During a release the traffic on the site can be very heavy which causes the site to be a little slow. We will be on the phone with our tech team to ensure that this doesn't last long. We can't prevent it but when it does occur, the tech team can "flush the pipes" so if there are any issues, please be patient and we will have them resolved ASAP! Thank you so much for your support.

Trees, more commonly known as Bottle Trees, are believed to be able to
capture evil spirits and are commonly placed outside of the home in an
effort to dissuade the evil spirits from entering the home. They're
commonly thought to originate in Africa but similar lore has been found
in other countries around the world. Bottle Trees are popular in the
south, especially in the low country, where they adorn home gardens as
folk art pieces and perhaps serve a greater purpose for the
superstitious. <br /><br />Delicate white flowers, soft vanilla and
sandalwood. Fans of Spellbound Woods and gentle florals will enjoy this
scent as the smooth and subtle woodsy base is comprised of Spellbound,
Sandalwood EO, Sandalwood FO and Amyris EO which marries beautifully to
the sweet jasmine blooms and elegant lily of the valley that lay in an
intoxicating blanket on top. <br /><i><br />Perfume, Ganache, Glace & Available for the first time in Whipped Soap</i><br /></b></span><br />

Lilac blossoms in the foreground combine with faint traces of cascading
wisteria and subtle, fresh, green grass notes. Contains a blend of
fragrance oils and African Bluegrass EO to create a sweet, creamy and
gorgeous floral. The dry down is an intensely beautiful and very

crisp green top notes of English ivy and a touch of new green spring

and initial application, a beautiful green top note emerges. The dry
down is crisp, cool-toned and very fresh. Would make an excellent year

Bath Soak With Essential Oils of Petitgrain, African Bluegrass,
Michelia Alba, Ylang Ylang Extra, Sandalwood & Virginia Cedarwood</b><br /><br />NOT TO BE USED BY WOMEN WHO ARE PREGNANT OR NURSING.<br /><br />The
Carolina Wren is the inspiration behind this bright spring scent. A
small brown bird with a beautiful white stripe above each eye and light
yellow markings on the chest and belly, the Carolina Wren only measures
up to 6 inches in adulthood. Wrens are common residents in our home
garden and they have the most beautiful song. They are monogamous,
inquisitive, playful and frequently nest in garages and hanging plants.
The wren is frequently found on our windowsills and can be seen darting
around in the jasmine outside of the Solstice Scents workshop. They
have no trouble cohabiting near humans and are wonderful companion birds
that bring joy to any garden.<br /><br />Wren is made with essential oils
of petitgrain, African bluegrass, michelia alba, ylang ylang extra and a
small touch of sandalwood and Virginia cedarwood. 100% pure essential
oil blend. The fragrance is primarily tart, citrusy, herbaceous and
slightly woodsy petitgrain. Petitgrain oil is extracted from the leaves
or branches of the orange tree but smells quite different from orange
essential oil. It smells closer to the scent profile of neroli. It has
a bright and uplifting aroma and if it were a color, it would be the
color of a Wren. Petitgrain is indicated for stress related conditions
and insomnia. The other essential oils in the blend are mild and add
depth. African bluegrass has an amazing grassy scent, michelia alba is a
tangy floral with a green note. Topped with shredded aspen and moss.<br /><br /><i>Salts only. </i><br /></b></span><br />

Millhopper is a unique geological formation that is 120 ft. deep and
500 ft. across at the rim. It has over 230 steps descending into its
heart. The sinkhole's name comes from its funnel-like shape which
resembles a grist mill's hopper in which grain was held. Early settlers
found fossilized animal remains and shark's teeth at the bottom and
along the craggy walls leading them to believe that this was the place
where bodies were fed to the Devil. Devil's Millhopper has a lush
primitive environment with fern, moss, lichen, rare plants and a variety
of trees. There are several small caves and waterfalls which flow into
the basin below. The water then travels to an underground river which
leads to the Florida aquifer.<br />This scent contains notes of heather,
oakmoss and an assortment of woods used to interpret the atmosphere of
Devil's Millhopper. On cold sniff it smells of fern, new spring leaves,
moss and grass with heather and soft woods lurking just below. On
initial application, the green top notes quickly subside and the fresh
cool-toned floral note of heather and delicate woods emerge. Dry down
is soft, fresh and hugs close to the skin. A very unisex scent.<br /><br />A
blend of heather, African bluegrass EO, hinoki wood EO, oakmoss
absolute, ho wood EO, sandalwood, rosewood EO, Virginia cedarwood EO
& muhuhu EO.<br /><br /><i>Perfume, Bar Soap</i></b></span><br />

carnations placed upon winter's tomb, sheltered in an oak hammock in
which the first signs of spring's new growth has begun to emerge.<br /><br />A
complex blend of fragrance and essential oils, Dellamorte features
dominant notes of oak and white carnation with supporting notes of
sandalwood, oakmoss, Egyptian musk, vanilla, hyacinth and a small amount
of violet absolute, vetiver and bergamot. On initial application,
Dellamorte starts out with a bright burst of fresh green notes, dew
kissed carnations, delicate creamy woods and a sweet element from the
Egyptian musk and vanilla combination. It stays relatively strong for
about 15 minutes then smooths out into a sweet, woodsy and velvety scent
with the carnation still present, though more gentle, with a subtle
green note and a tiny hint of spice.<br /><br /><i>Perfume only</i></b></span><br />

is a dual concept fragrance that brings together the airy, sweet and
refreshingly tart taste of Lemon Chiffon pie and the elegant, wispy and
equally airy beauty of chiffon fabric. A very special top-shelf,
perfectly sweet and non-cloying vanilla (one of the vanillas in
Nightgown) provides a base for a delicate touch of white amber and white
musk. Chiffon is completed with the bright and uplifting scent of pure
lemon myrtle essential oil. The lemon myrtle is one of the dominant
notes on cold sniff and initial application. It will recede within 5 to
10 minutes and allow the other notes to emerge. Unlike most lemon
essential oil top notes that disappear fairly quickly, lemon myrtle EO
has a strong lemon-like scent but also a very good staying power. Lemon
Myrtle is distilled from the leaves of a native Australian Tree. As it
fades and takes a back seat to the other notes a wonderful, sweet,
ethereal and beautiful long-lasting scent is left behind. The longer
Chiffon is on the skin, the sweeter it gets. The vanilla is the longest
lasting note of the blend and takes on a glorious whipped cream and an
almost marshmallow note the longer it is on the skin. A really lovely
and sophisticated scent! Fans of some of our other scents like
Nightgown, Snowshoe Pass and Manor should really enjoy Chiffon.<br /><br />While
Chiffon is overall a scent that smells light and airy like clouds, it
also is pretty strong and seems to grow stronger the longer it is on the
skin so apply a modest amount on your first try and let it sit for
about 45 minutes to gauge how much you will need for future
applications.<br /><br />Do not apply Chiffon Glace after a hot shower and
avoid spraying on or near cuts, rashes, wounds or broken skin as the
lemon myrtle will sting. If you have sensitive skin you may wish to use
Chiffon Glace as a Body Oil only and avoid using it in the bathtub as a
Bath Oil.<br /><i><br />Perfume, Burnishing Glace</i></b></span><br />

Chantilly Cream is white fluffy whipped cream sweetened with vanilla
and just a touch of peach nectar. A light addition of lovely yellow
mandarin essential oil tempers the juicy peach note. The primary notes
in this blend are the whipped cream and a blend of vanillas and they are
also the longest lasting. The peach nectar and yellow mandarin are
more detectable in the cold sniff of the blend and are very subtle on
the skin and add a juicy touch to the more dominant scent of the whipped
cream accord. This fragrance is best judged not on cold sniff or
immediately after application but after about 5 to 7 minutes of morphing
before its true scent is revealed. It will become sweeter the longer
it wears and the fruit notes will eventually recede completely.<br /><br />Chantilly
Cream has a profile that is very light, sweet and delicate. It hugs
very close to the skin and is intended for a gentle skin sweetening
treat when you wish to wear something a little lighter and less heady
near those sensitive to fragrance, in the work environment or just
because you want to indulge in something a little softer in scent and
throw. It is a versatile scent that would pair and layer wonderfully
with fragrances in your collection that contain notes of coconut, cake,
fruit, vanilla or even select floral scents (white florals such as
jasmine, tuberose and lily especially). It layers nicely with Chiffon
too! <br /><br /><i>Perfume, Burnishing Glace</i></b></span><br />

Fragrances are a blend of exquisite or rare essential oils, absolutes,
exotic authentic Indian attars and/or top shelf fragrance oils blended
in either rice bran oil or Perfumer's alcohol as indicated in the
listing. Gently agitate your premium fragrance with the cap on by
turning it up and down before applying. This will allow oils or
absolutes which may have separated due to the varying weights of each
oil and carrier to fully reincorporate. Rotate several times to insure
thorough mixing. Premium Fragrances are packaged in a gorgeous 5 ml
cobalt blue glass roll-on with black cap (see promo image at top of
page). For best results, store your fragrances in the upright position
away from heat and light. The fragrance will be neatly handwritten in
black ink on the label. The premium fragrances are more expensive than
our 10 ml blends. However, the components to make these are typically
very very pricey and even with these exquisite ingredients, our 5 ml
prices are still very competitive. The premium fragrances are also very
concentrated.<br /><br />The perfume roll on bottles are a different
manufacturer than our 10ml bottles. The roller ball occasionally needs
to be coaxed a little more at the start to encourage the fragrance out.
You may do this be gently holding your bottle upside down (with bottom
pointing toward ceiling) and running the roller ball on your finger
until the fragrance is free flowing. <br /><br />SAMPLES FOR PREMIUM SCENTS:
Due to the high cost of some of the ingredients, our perfume sample
vials will remain at $2.50 but will be 1/4 of the way full. This way we
will be able to sell them in all of our sample pack listings and won't
have to have a separate premium sample only listing at a higher cost.

Pipe Tobacco is an all natural blend of vanilla planifolia absolute,
tobacco absolute and sweet clover absolute in Perfumer's alcohol. On
cold sniff and initial application the tobacco absolute is dominate but
after a short time on the skin, it calms tremendously allowing the sweet
divine scent of vanilla absolute and the subtle coumarin hay-like note
of sweet clover absolute to commandeer the foreground. The scent is
exactly like a sack of moist fresh vanilla flavored pipe tobacco. It is
truly exquisite and has amazing staying power and tenacity. The longer
Vanilla Pipe Tobacco wears on the skin, the sweeter it becomes. After
several hours the vanilla takes on a bit of a marshmallow overtone so
this fragrance is a bit of morpher but it smells divine at each stage.
It is amazing worn alone or for layering. It layers exceptionally well
with our Cocoa Absolute Premium Fragrance (coming in the near future)!<br /><br />Vanilla
may be sensitizing for those with very sensitive skin. You may wish to
purchase a sample to test in an inconspicuous for sensitivity before
purchasing a full size if you have allergy concerns. (I am sadly
allergic to vanilla absolute and therefore all of our blends that have
vanilla absolute. I will break out in a rash about 48 hours later
though, so it isn't an instantly apparent allergy. It really stinks for
me because this, Basilica and Jack & The Devil are some of my all
time faves).<br /><br />I hope to offer this as a part of the General
Catalog offerings. It is not listed under the Spring Collection as it
is not a part of that, though it will be released on the same day. Look
for it under the Perfume category.<br /><br />~ $17.50<br /></b></span><br />

of Gold is an utterly amazing, 100% natural and exquisite blend of
essential oils, absolutes and Indian attars blended in our rice bran
carrier oil. Notes of sandalwood, white sandalwood, honeysuckle, champa
and white lotus combine to form a divine and meditative scent that is
also very sensual. Cascade of Gold has a base of exotic incensey woods
with a very strong amber note that has subtle balsamic undertones. The
floral notes are delicately blended so as to add just the right exotic
touch to the warm wood and amber notes. It smells like bottled sunset
with the last of the days' golden orange rays peeking out mixed with
humid deep south air that has been perfumed by a concentration of mid
spring blooms. You can almost literally feel a warmth radiating from
your skin with this scent on. The champa is the finest quality I've
found and it contributes a delicate edge of spice to the blend as well.
The florals serenely float at the top of the blend adding a velvety
white note for the first 10 minutes. Their voice becomes softer and
evolves to a relatively stable blend without morphing that smells warm,
sweet, ambery, golden, robust, full bodied, exotic, floral and extremely
sexy. Cascade of Gold would make a wonderful blend for yoga,
meditation, scrying or just before bed as it has a natural harmony and
almost trance inducing properties. <br /><br />(Added to and originally
developed for the Spring Collection, I hope to add this one to the
General Catalog. Some of the attars are aged and I got the last of one
of them from my supplier for this batch so I will need to ensure that
whatever the supplier gets in smells similar if I'm able to continue to
carry this scent and have relative consistency. That's the only trouble
with naturals - they can vary from batch to batch and the attars become
more exquisite as they age)<br /><br />~ 18.00</b></span><br />

is an all natural elegant sweet fougere blend consisting of the most
exquisite Bulgarian Lavender Absolute which smells just like lavender
buds and has no astringent or medicinal profile at all. It is blended
with oakmoss absolute, organic coriander, fresh lime, white sandalwood,
sandalwood, white waxy velvet gardenia petals, woody nagarmotha, sweet
balsamic labdanum, peru balsam, yellow mandarin and sweet clover
absolute in a rice bran oil base. The lavender absolute has the most
incredible natural coumarin notes (reminiscent of sweet fresh hay, tonka
beans and vanilla) that is enhanced by the addition of sweet clover
absolute which also has a strong coumarin note. The gardenia is not a
dominant or individually detectable note but it does enhance the
sweetness of the lavender from its waxy-fatty floral scent while adding a
green note to enhance the oakmoss' contribution (it is definitely
missed if not added to this blend). The lime, coriander and mandarin
are carefully and delicately added so that they serve to give a bit of
brightness and lift to the blend. The citrus notes are primarily
detected at initial application. All of the wood notes add an earthy
quality to the fragrance. The result of this note combination is a
fragrance that is as cool and foresty as the Cascade of Gold fragrance
is warm, humid and sensual. Courtyard is meant to evoke the image of a
large stone fountain with water cascading down multiple tiers, in the
middle of a splendid garden boasting an abundance of flowering lavender
and gardenia bushes, liriope and a variety of ferns edging brick
walkways and shaded by Grandaddy oaks heavy with the burden of Spanish
moss.<br /><br />The strongest note in the blend is the lavender absolute
but your nose will pick up the soft harmony of other notes holding it up
as the crowning jewel of the composition. It is very sweet, cool,
creamy and delicately earthy with very soft hints of green, herbs,
woods, lime and distant florals. Courtyard has incredible staying power
and is strongly recommended if you even remotely enjoy lavender. It is
an incredible treat before bed and layers nicely with Devil's
Millhopper as well! The lavender used in this blend is not to be
confused with the louder and more dominant lavender used in Quiet Night
and Lavender Vanilla. This lavender is a demure, classy and elegant
aristocrat draped in white flowing fabrics and twirling in the coolest
shadows under an oak hammock, just barely missing the cool fountain
spray carried on the light spring breeze. 100% pure essential oils,
absolutes and attars.<br /><br />I also hope to offer Courtyard in the
General Catalog. Like Cascade of Gold, it is listed under the Spring
Collection because it was originally created inspired by spring and I
like both so much, I decided that if they were well received, I'd like
to add both to the GC. <br /><br />~ $17.50</b></span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><b style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The VDay collection will be released on Monday, February 6th at 7 p.m. EST at <a href="http://solsticescents.com/">SOLSTICESCENTS.COM</a>. It is a modest size. There are a few new things and a few returning things but I don't tend to do enormous VDay collections since Spring takes forever to test and make and is a lot larger. As previously mentioned, I also have to juggle taxes and my continuing ed for my real estate license so there are just not enough hours in the day sometimes! I hope that something here whets your appetite though. <br />
<br />
I want to say this collection is similar to the small Autumn Gourmand Collection release we did (with Black Mallow, Blackburn Farmstead, etc) in that I'm not going to be actively restocking any of the ganache, glace, whipped soap or bar soap. I will try to restock perfume where supply allows. The reason for this is so that I can jump straight into spring crafting and still have time for the taxes and ed. We have a lot of amazing stuff in the works for spring and if you're a forum member, you can get more details on the direction we're headed in there. :)<br />
<br />
We went cherry crazy this year (which is only slightly less insane than plum crazy haha). We have a cherry for the foodies, a cherry for those who are in between gourmand and dark notes and a cherry that is very very dark and dangerous. The cherry on top is that there is also a new sensual perfume that has nothing to do with cherries - read on!</b></span><br />

<br />
A medly of black cherries and maraschino cherries enrobed in milk and dark chocolate. The scent of our popular soap now available in Perfume, Body Ganache, Burnishing Glace and Whipped Soap! Two different kinds of chocolate absolute are added to this blend to enhance the rich cocoa note. The whipped soap and bar soap contain Organic Fair-Trade Cocoa Powder. The blend starts out with a heavier cherry note but quickly settles down into a very nice gourmand blend of both chocolate and cherry. Juicy, sweet and edible smelling!<br />
<br />
Previously only offered in a bar soap. This was offered on a very small scale in some body products early on in the SS online career but the majority of our customers have not been able to purchase anything but the bar soap. <br />

Offered year round as one of our popular darker gourmand perfumes, this scent will be available in the oft-requested Ganache and also as a Glace for the first time! If you love this scent, now is your chance to purchase companion products. <br />
<br />
This perfume is a blend of 2 different ambers, black cherries, maraschino cherries, vanilla fragrance and absolute and a tiny hint of sweet mandarin orange slices. A burst of cherry followed by a deep vanilla greets you on initial application. A subtle orange note emerges shortly thereafter. The dry down is a very soft incensey amber-cherry combo with a subtle sweetness from the vanilla. Contains vanilla absolute, sweet orange essential oil, tangerine essential oil and fragrance oils.<br />

<i>Not For Women Who Are Pregnant or Nursing</i><br />
<br />
Dramatic sigh. This scent is so sexy. I have been wearing the pants off of this one and I'm sure there is a euphemism there but I am going to take the high road and tantalize you with describing the intense richness of this blend instead. This is one of our first dual concept fragrances. It is meant to embody the luxurious decadence of black forest cake and the dark secluded imagery of the Black Forest in Germany. The focus was on rich exotic wood notes in lieu of conifer notes to represent the forest. Black Forest is very heavy on the woods. On initial application the cherries are detectable but they quickly fall into a chasm of deep dark notes that serve to tame the gourmand element of this blend. The agarwood and nagarmotha prop up the sweet notes and are the next to be discovered. Nagarmotha essential oil is a divine cross that strikes somewhere between vetiver and agarwood. It evokes a rare and precious wood note. The tobacco and hay absolutes are the next notes to emerge quickly after detection of the aforementioned notes. They wrap the other oils in a cozy, warm, dry and dusty blanket. This is the point where Black Forest turns most dry and smells like a humidor housing a very fine and exceedingly dark chocolate cherry pipe tobacco. The scent stays in this phase for a little while but as your skin warms it, the ethereal billows of the fluffiest whipped cream waft far in the background and sweeten the blend of woods to the point that it begins to smell like a wonderful unlit incense stick coupled with the pipe tobacco. The gourmand notes end up receeding tremendously though they are invaluable to the overall character of this scent. </b></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><b style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> This is not a standard foodie scent. If you like dark fragrances with these notes, try this unusual and enticing fragrance. It is full of character and depth. After a few hours on the skin it turns a lot sweeter when the whipped cream note is most apparent but the woods keep it grounded and it stays a super delicious incensey scent.<br />
<br style="color: #ea9999;" /><span style="color: #ea9999;">Black Forest is offered in Perfume only due to extremely pricey and precious exotic oils (which are not used sparingly at all!)</span></b></span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><b style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;">VIOLET TRUFFLE - Dark Chocolate, Violet, Violet Leaf & Vanilla Absolute</span><br />
<br />
Offered year round as a General Catalog Perfume, Violet Truffle will be restocked as a Ganache in order to coincide with the V-Day release.<br />
<br />
Dark chocolate violet ganache truffles topped with a violet-vanilla infused sugar. On cold sniff and initial application, rich chocolate with a hint of wet and Earthy violet absolute draws you in. The soft powdery note of violet fragrance emerges then rises to hover just beneath the chocolate note. This is definitely a morpher and the vanilla-violet sugar sweet notes become more evident the longer this one is on the skin as the soft powdery violet note slowly retreats to the background. Contains cocoa and vanilla absolute, violet leaf absolute and fragrance.<br />

<b style="color: #cc0000;">GERMAN CHOCOLATE CAKE - Chocolate Cake, Coconut, Pecan & Vanilla</b><br />
<br />
This is a return from last year. The downside is, one of the dominant oils in this blend was discontinued and I thought I had a lot more than I did and realized after I already made the perfume and ganache that I didn't have anymore (I never checked because I *KNEW* it was there...ack). So if you really want this, for fair warning I only have enough for a limited amount of Perfume and Body Ganache this year. When it sells out, it's gone for good and I can't make anymore. This will be offered as a sample in the freebies at checkout and for sample purchase but it is a buy at your own risk in the sample since I can't guarantee a full size will be available should you decide you want one. The good news is that a ton of people bought this scent last year so I think most of our regular customers already have it in their collection so the supply I have may indeed by adequate for everyone. I just don't know for sure! I'm so sorry for the inconvenience on this one. I had intended to offer this in a Whipped Soap and Glace like last year but it just isn't in the cards.<br />
<br />
Description: Moist layers of rich chocolate cake filled with mouth watering coconut and pecan icing. Starts out with a strong burst of chocolate followed closely by coconut. This scent is a morphing journey! After about 10 - 15 minutes the scent is soft German chocolate cake which lasts for some time. The longer this oil is on the skin, the sweeter and more vanilla it will lean. This fragrance eventually turns into a delicious sweet vanilla cake. The vanilla fragrance comes from the all natural mouth-watering vanilla absolute. Contains cocoa and vanilla absolute and fragrance oils.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #ea9999;">Perfume and Ganache only. Limited Stock.</span></b></span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: small;"></span></b></div><span style="font-size: small;"><b style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br />
<b style="color: #cc0000;">NIGHTGOWN - Vanilla, White Chocolate, Tuberose & Tiare Flowers</b><br />
<br />
A sensual and very creamy floral fragrance, Nightgown evokes the image of a gorgeous satin nightie with lace trim. It fits like a second skin and is the perfect attire for lounging and snuggling. This perfume is the representation of the fabric itself: beautiful, plush, sweet and delicate with white velvety petals from exotic flowers that entrance you with aphrodisiac qualities. The floral notes are very creamy, well rounded and tame while still being detectable and not too heady, sharp or perfumey. The dominant notes are a vanilla accord blended with a touch of divine white chocolate. The floral notes are present on initial application and for some time on the skin though on the long term dry down they will recede and the vanillas and white chocolate will be predominant. If you like the vanilla accord in Manor and Snowshoe Pass, it makes a striking appearance in this blend! Nightgown is wispy, innocent and mysterious at once - like feathers and a gently strummed harp.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #ea9999;">Perfume only.</span> Due to limited components, Nightgown is a limited release. Unfortunately, I ordered a small quantity of one of the oils in this blend to produce a test batch/prototype and when I went to order the larger quantity I needed, I was told the oil is out of stock and the components will take two weeks to arrive from Europe. So, I was able to snag a very small amount of oil this supplier still had left in order to have enough to offer for this release but when my supply runs out, it is unlikely I will have more, at least not anytime soon. If this scent receives positive feedback, I may offer it again in the future but for now, this is it! I will have samples like the German Chocolate Cake but there is an element of risk involved with purchasing the sample since I may or may not have a full size available. I think I have a decent amount though and unlike the German Chocolate Cake, this is something I could make again in the future. </b></span><br />

<span style="color: #cc0000;">BLOOD BATHORY SALTS - Palmarosa, Geranium, Jasmine, Chamomile, Rosewood, Pink Grapefruit</span></b><br />
<br />
Not to be used by women who are pregnant or nursing or those prone to hayfever (due to the chamomile EO).<br />
<br />
These are a part of our rotating General Catalog and I thought they would be perfect to bring back for V-Day (my bloody valentine *rimshot*). Blood Bathory is not quite as strong as some of our other salts as the fragrance is made with gentle essential oils. It is a mild, relaxing grapefruit scent coupled with white tea like floral notes. The water transforms red as soon as these salts hit the water! With the exception of just a few drops of jasmine fragrance oil, this scent is an all natural blend of essential oils.<br />
<br />
Description: Blood Bathory is not just a macabre novelty that turns your bath water the color of watered down blood, it also contains a powerhouse of antioxidant essential oils, green tea powder and a silky blend of oatmeal and coconut milk powder. It is a combination of essential oils of pink grapefruit, white grapefruit, palmarosa, geranium bourbon, peru balsam, roman chamomile, rosewood and jasmine with a few drops of jasmine fragrance oil. The fragrance is a light tart citrus coupled with a tea like mild floral. If you like Victorian Tea Room, this is in a similar vein. A relaxing bath best used before bed or to ease nervous tension due to the sedative properties in the chamomile essential oil. Topped with dried rose petals.</b></span><br />
