Thank you for your patience while we waded through one of the most massive autumn order volumes that we have ever experienced. We are happy to report that all outstanding orders have shipped far ahead of the projected turnaround time and after a quick breather, we will be opening back up on November 8th, at which time preorders for our winter/holiday collection will go live.
I am so happy to introduce you to this years winter/holiday collection. This collection will be open for preorders from Friday November 8th at 8pm EST through Sunday November 10th at 8pm EST. This collection has a little something for everyone from festive gourmand lovers to those who revel in the coziness of silent winter forests. We will also be doing a fundraiser for Alberta Sphynx Rescue, with 50% of proceeds from one of the most gorgeous amber perfumes you'll ever smell going to support their important work.
All together, we will have six new fragrances, four returning fragrances, and a sample set of three fragrances. Please note that sample sets will go live when preorders open and will only be available while they last. While not likely, it is possible that some items may sell out during the preorder period this year judging by the unprecedented order volume from our autumn collection. Please note that we will be closing for the year during the second week of December so that we can do our best to ensure that all orders are shipped well under the posted turnaround time.
Though it is not on the menu, Foliage Fire will also return on November 8th.
Without further ado, here are the details of this years coziest collection.
------------
New Fragrances
Vanilla Chai
Aroma palette is a spicy gourmand. Highlights include warm vanilla, brown sugar, and chai spices.
Our beautifully warm and cozy interpretation of chai is a gorgeous olfactory accompaniment to cold winter days. Rich chai spices sit atop a warm base of deep, foamy vanilla swirled with brown sugar. On the dry down, you'll catch the magic of Ceylon cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, tonka, and cardamon before the blend settles into a thick cozy blanket of vanilla bedecked with hints of spice.
15ml Eau de Parfum.
Solstice Snowfall
Aroma palette is icy and coniferous. Highlights include black spruce, Siberian fir, Douglas fir, soft cedarwood, snow accord, and agarwood.
This deeply green and wintry botanical perfume features a trio of coniferous evergreen trees. Siberian fir, Douglas fir, and black spruce dance together against a backdrop of the softest cedarwood. A touch of agarwood (sustainably harvested) darkens the greens ever so slightly on the drydown and Ceylon cinnamon leaf adds a very subtle and fleeting touch of spice.
At the heart of this fragrance is our snow accord which features peppermint Black Mitcham, a soft and distinctively gourmand peppermint oil from England that does not contain the sharp edges typically experienced in peppermint oil. The result is an experience of a magical winter forest under snowfall, alternating between the nostalgic aroma of Christmas trees and the vibrant fresh veil of snow.
Presented in a 5ml apothecary bottle or 10ml rollerball bottle.
Vermont
Aroma palette is a woody gourmand. Highlights include buttermilk waffles, dark maple syrup, caramelized pears, vanilla, and winter forests.
This unique ode to Vermont is a decadent blend of gourmand and forest elements. Fluffy buttermilk waffles are drizzled in maple syrup, topped with caramelized pears, and dusted with a sprinkle of vanilla. This gourmand coziness is all built on top of a deep green chypre evoking visions of a winter forest.
This composition is a vivid picture of a Vermont morning: a blend of the comforting, familiar warmth of a cozy breakfast with the serene, invigorating stillness of the deep forest.
Presented in a 5ml apothecary bottle or 10ml rollerball bottle.
Forest Magic
Aroma palette is woodsy and resinous with touches of incense. Highlights include mysore sandalwood, palo santo incense, vanilla, tonka bean, and fir balsam.
This decadent forest blend features a plethora of rich, deep, woodsy and resinous materials slightly warmed by hints of vanilla and tonka bean. The centerpiece of this composition is fir balsam -the rich, jammy, coniferous aroma of the deep forest in winter.
Sandalwood and palo santo incense adds a magical element to the mix on the dry down. These precious woods infuse the fragrance with a sacred aura, adding depth and complexity to the forest journey. As it wears on, a subtle yet comforting warmth emanates from vanilla and tonka bean, softening the crisp edges of the wood and forest notes.
This is a deep, wintry perfume that wears like a cozy blanket made from the tapestry of a forest in winter.
Presented in a 5ml apothecary bottle or 10ml rollerball bottle.
Sphynx
Aroma palette is an earthy amber. Highlights include patchouli, resinous amber, white musk, and a touch of sandalwood.
The perfect balance of patchouli and amber, this enchanting fragrance features an earthy light patchouli dancing hand in hand with a resinous golden amber. This gorgeous duo is bedecked with white musk and a touch of sandalwood. It opens up with the deep earthiness of a slightly peppery patchouli which quickly gives way to amber on the drydown before settling into a beautifully mysterious amber with touches of sandalwood and lingering patchouli.
50% of the proceeds from the sale of this fragrance will be donated to Alberta Sphynx Rescue, an amazing organization doing important work to provide a safe haven to Sphynx, Devon's, Donskoy's, Peterbalds and other hairless cat breeds. Click here to view their website.
Artists note: I adopted my first Sphynx 25 years ago when I was living in San Francisco. He lived to be an amazing old man of 15 and he not only changed my life, but saved it in many ways. I have been a proud guardian of these special cats for many years and currently have three Sphynx children (two Canadian Sphynxes and a Donskoy). Because they are so unique, they sadly too often fall into the wrong hands either through greed or through ignorance of the amount of special care these cats require. Alberta Sphynx Rescue does incredible, much needed work to rescue, provide a safe haven to, and give lots of love to specialty hairless breeds.
Presented in a 5ml apothecary bottle or 10ml rollerball bottle.
Snow Amber
Aroma palette is amber with touches of sugar and winter trees. Highlights include opulent golden amber, frasier fir, iced tree moss, and spun sugar.
Deep golden amber sets the stage for this opulent amber-centered fragrance. Decorated with winter touches of Frasier fir and iced over tree moss made magical with a touch of spun sugar, this is a uniquely bewitching amber.
Imagine stepping into a forest on a crisp winter day, where the air is filled with the rich, deep magic of golden amber. Intertwined with this opulent amber are refreshing notes of Frasier fir, evoking images of towering evergreens dusted lightly with snow. As you wander deeper into this olfactory journey, you encounter the cool, moss-covered bark of ancient trees, tinged with frost. On the drydown, a delicate sprinkle of spun sugar adds a touch of gourmand magic. This unexpected sweetness dances through the amber and woodsy notes, creating a captivating contrast that lingers in the air like a spell cast by the hand of winter.
Presented in a 5ml apothecary bottle or 10ml rollerball bottle.

Enter a mystical winter wonderland where the essence of nature and the wintry allure of peppermint candy canes intertwine. This unique blend opens with the serene aroma of freshly fallen snow before quickly opening to crisp air carrying the essence of cypress trees. A touch of hinoki wood adds depth and enhances the base notes of frozen earth with its earthy and mineral facets. Throughout the journey, peppermint candy canes remain at the forefront, evoking crisp bursts of candied nostalgia. This is a gorgeously unique dance between earth and peppermint.

Chocolate Rose Tea

This cozy yet decadent gourmand features freshly brewed black tea swirled with lush chocolate, warm vanilla, and a scattering of dried rose petals.
