Description

The startle of purple stars
From a frigid ground
still covered in snow

What causes you to kneel
is also above
and certainly within
Somewhere between seeing
and saying

All of creation

At the tip of your tongue
Sprouting from your fingers

a tiny flower
calls your name
and asks you to say it back 

 

Perfumer(s): Max Turk

 

Notes: violet flower, violet leaf, woody roots, damp earth

Longevity and layering

Did you know that fragrance longevity can be greatly increased by beginning your routine with clean, moisturized skin? We recommend starting with a shower gel or soap that is either neutrally scented or in the same scent family as your perfume. Then, add a moisturizer and/or body oil and allow it to soak in. Finally, add your fragrance on top. This added moisture barrier will hold the scent molecules for more time, allowing the fragrance to last longer. Think of it as a primer for perfume!
You can also layer scented products (including lotion, soap, body oil, perfume oil, and other alcohol-based perfumes) to add depth, intensity, or a variety of other facets to your final fragrance. We suggest beginning with similar scents (such as two different citrus or vanilla fragrances) and testing those layering combinations, then branching out to more experimental pairings. Feeling stuck? Shared notes, even in very different fragrances, can help bring the final scent together. The sky's the limit - have fun!
