Scorpio (original version) ♏︎ natural zodiac perfume.
a l c h e m y ☽•☾
My first bestseller. Jasmine vines uncoil in the underworld: a scorpion, submerged in a fragrant tomb and preserved in amber, is stung by patchouli's earthen kiss. Hypnotic sandalwood nectar opens and brightens dark corners of the heart.

Organic jasmine grandiflorum (in house absolutes and enfleurage; perfumer sourced and aged absolutes and SCO2 organic extracts), wild Mysore white sandalwood, organic amber (in house blend), dark aged patchouli, and wild Sicilian, Tunisian, Dominican, De Luz, and Vermont oranges.

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.
