Creature Comforts ☽•☾ limited edition natural perfume.
a l c h e m y ☽•☾
Creature Comforts is a limited edition blend of rare, in house, co-aged extracts including Wild Tree Purple Black Tea (Yunnan), Alishan Gaba Oolong (Taiwan), 2009 Lao Cha Tou (Bu Lang Shan), Gyokuro (Japan), Iliahi (wild Hawaiian sandalwood), Savannah Tupelo raw honey, bushman's candle (Sarcocaulon mossamedense), unwashed high lanolin wool from a black Icelandic wether named Crummett, and cardamom. Gauzy musk tissue at the opening with tangy sheep wool ringing in behind. After the musk dissipates a dark chewiness from the oolong, fermented Lao Cha Tou "tea lumps," and Wild Tree Purple Black couples with intermittent rounded leather notes. There is a dark milkiness but nothing chocolate: rice pudding, dates, and caramel from the Lao Cha Tou, and rich, buttery, luxurious but fresh and bright golden creaminess from the Gaba Oolong. The Wild Tree Purple Black contributes stunningly complex stirrings of sugarcane, bright plum skins, citrus and eucalyptus without astringency, tannins or bitterness. This wild, primeval mountain varietal is non hybridized and pre-dates Camellia Sinensis var. Assamica. Deep buttermilk and a light sourness from the Iliahi, brown amber from the bushman's candle, and southern sweet musk from the honey. Notes of whaling ship wood (ambergris and sea brine), black clay, pecans, roasted seeds, wet September purple, maroon, and yellow ash leaves, sawdust, green bamboo rice, sweetened condensed milk. The cardamom adds a dappled texture to what otherwise would be a honeyed curtain parting to reveal a dark, feral tableau. Release limited to 50.

Wild Veil natural perfumes are composed by me, Abby, using homemade, wildcrafted and organic aromatics in Vermont. These include my handmade enfleurage, tinctures, enfleurage extraits, absolutes, resinoids and concretes, and floral waxes. I spend as much time growing plants and foraging as I do composing perfumes.

The best way to experience a natural perfume is to apply it to well-moisturized skin, without rubbing in (absorption only shortens the wear time of fragrance) and without scrubbing off. Natural perfumes are dynamic and take a minimum of 2 hours to reach their final stage, or dry down. Enjoy the alchemical changes as they unfold from the initial intensity of top notes, to the warmth of the heart, to the depth of lower base notes.
