Medea
July 2026 Edition
An Ancient Mediterranean Floral Amber
Medea returns in a new edition, revealing a brighter facet of one of Wild Veil's most beloved compositions.
An ancient Mediterranean floral amber, Medea opens with radiant orange blossom—fresh, honeyed, and touched by the bittersweet sparkle of citrus leaves. Jasmine grandiflorum lends depth and quiet sensuality, while warm amber and precious sandalwood cradle the flowers rather than competing with them.
Frankincense and myrrh drift through the composition like warm evening air along an ancient coastline, adding luminosity rather than smoke. Orris root, balsams, and vanilla melt into the base, creating a finish that is velvety, contemplative, and quietly enduring.
The result is a perfume that feels both timeless and deeply botanical: white blossoms glowing against polished wood, sacred resins, and golden light.
The July 2026 edition places greater emphasis on the living beauty of orange blossom while remaining faithful to the spirit of Medea—its mysterious shores, luminous flowers, and resinous warmth.

Adrift on an inky sea: amber and orange blossom tears, incense and herbs float on the bottom of a cedar-myrrh-sandalwood boat. Floral amber depths suffuse the wearer. Classical and pure, bergamot, orange blossom, wild oranges, and sage-like red cedar arrange the oneiric top notes. Deep and voluptuous, jasmine grandiflorum marries with tonka and a cluster of resins and balsams in the fragrant heart. The base is rich and spiritual: orris root's dark imprint, Mysore sandalwood buttermilk, caramel waves of Madagascar vanilla, and the leather echo of deep soil. Tragic, lovely and deep. Vegan. Skews feminine. Color may vary.

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.

Wild Veil oil perfumes are suspended in an odorless base of organic MCT coconut oil. As they do not contain water, liquid perfumes do not expire, and may improve with age. While the volatile top notes (the ones that hit your nose first) will fade after a year or more, the base and heart notes will deepen and grow more complex.

In solid perfumes this silky transparent base (above) mingles beautifully with the earthy, honey musk of organic beeswax. Raw beeswax traps the aroma molecules, releasing them over time for an intimate experience.

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.
