The Unpierced Forest ☽•☾ natural perfume.
a l c h e m y ☽•☾
Black madder. The wicked prince attempted to purge the evil from the forest. An unknown blackness, a rasping sound. Black raspberries. An un-understood madness, madder. Bog's story, 50 stories high. Flax, vegetables, and other wild nourishment become knowing western fairies before a falling Sun. Worm is out.
time: midsummer.
place: northern humid woods.
tales: The Sleeping Beauty, Perceforest.

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.
