THE SCENT THAT
MATCHES YOU

"No external sense is so intimately connected with the internal sense of perception as that of smell, and are more capable of such delicate impressions. No sensation can be remembered in so lively manner as those who are recalled by peculiar odours, which are frequently known to excite our emotion to a degree which influences our physical and moral propensities." J Ch Sawer (1892).
WHY DO WE LOVE PERFUME?
Just as a flower which seems beautiful and has color but no perfume, so are the fruitless words of the man who speaks them but does them not - John Dewey
Can anyone remember love? It's like trying to summon up the smell of roses in a cellar. You might see a rose, but never the perfume - Arthur Miller
I have a lucky perfume. I love beautiful smells, but I save one of my favorite perfumes to wear only when I feel like I need some extra luck - Gretchen Rubin
THE SCENTS

Ylang-Ylang
Cananga odorata - Known as the cananga tree (perfume tree), is a tropical tree that originates in Indonesia.
Ylang ylang actually means “flower of flowers” and was given this name because of its sweet, floral scent. In fact, ylang ylang oil is one of the key ingredients used in the legendary perfume Chanel No. Throughout history in Indonesia, and even today, it’s commonly been used to decorate the bed of newlyweds on their wedding night due to its energizing, aphrodisiac qualities. It has a positive effect on immune health, blood flow and emotions, making it a natural remedy for the endocrine, cardiovascular, reproductive and digestive systems.

Guaiac Wood
Guaiac Wood is a small tree that is also known as guayacan. Guaiac wood is one of the hardest and most resilient woods in the world.
This wood was used to cure various ailments since the 16th century. This tradition is where the local name of Guaiac Wood – Palo Santo or Tree of Life – originates from.

Tuberose
Polianthes tuberosa - Tuberosa meaning swollen in reference to its root system. Polianthes means many flowers. The tuberose is a night-blooming plant native to Mexico. Polianthes tuberosa flowers have featured heavily in many different types of religious ceremonies down the years. In traditional Hawaiian weddings, for example, it is customary for the bride to wear a Tuberose wreath. Tuberosa flowers are also used during Indian wedding ceremonies for decorative purposes, while it was also used as a funeral flower during the Victorian Age

Oakmoss
Oakmoss, also known as Evernia prunastri, is a species of lichen, a fungus found in mountainous temperate forests all around the Northern hemisphere.
