#37 Verendus Perfume

• Plant Extract Fine Fragrance •

verendus ~ (adj.) to be feared, worthy of reverence; Giving an impression of aged goodness and benevolence.

Beetroot • Damp Soil • Rotting Oak

Opening with a blast of beetroot torn fresh from the earth meeting with deep damp triple distilled aged vetiver, clawing through sticky smoky patchouli absolute, burrowing deep down into blackened oakmoss.

This aroma takes one through a journey of decaying forest floor to the glorious pure rotting earth core. 

Plant extract natural perfume is a work of art that will hold differing aromas upon each individual’s flesh throughout each aspect of the scent. From the opening top note to the final dry down, it is best experienced on the skin, opposed to solely sniffing the bottle, allowing the perfume to be truly embraced, understood & appreciated.

Welcome to our perfume library! Years in the making, inspired by beautiful, unique words, this new collection of natural perfume has been created for one to layer, merge together, apply ritually, creating their own unique signature scent.

Our own smell is personal to us, and completely unique. How we smell is predetermined, and comes from the same genes which determine our body’s tissue type. We all have our ‘scent blind spots’, smells which we cannot pick up. This means that we all smell things differently, and the scents we enjoy are entirely unique to us.

Since time immemorial, people have approached fragrance ritualistically, layering on multiple oils, or attars. To have the most surprising effect, it’s important to blend fragrances that have diverse facets. Some scents that you can’t put together in the same bottle or formula, because they’re too extreme and turn out smelling horrible, are actually wonderful when you blend them in a layering process. Perfume layering is the best way to explore new aromas, merging untraditional ingredients to create one’s personal story upon the flesh.
