  Naturals Week – April 22-29th

  Green Witch by Roxana Illuminated Perfume is a green chypre inspired by the sea. The scent is inspired by the book, The Greenwitch by Susan Cooper.

  The perfume is green, very green. The liquid even has a slight greenness. Green Witch opens with bitter galbanum and a bright bergamot. It’s a sharp green scent. There’s a hint of rose, a damp rose. The scent smells wild, untamed. It reminds me of vines… Continue reading | 7 Comments

  Naturals Week – April 22-29

• Esscentual Alchemy That 70′s Smell Perfume Oil Review

  Esscentual Alchemy That 70′s Smell is a earthy, resinous, aromatic green perfume. Yeah, it could be described as “hippie” but I think of at as a very spiritual and ancient perfume.

  That 70′s Smell is “strong”. The opening for me is cool/medicinal lavender with frankincense and tons of earthy vetiver. It seems very “ancient”, like 70 B.C.E instead of 1970 C.E.! It reminds me of ancient resins, woods, balsams. After 15 minutes of wear, That 70′s Smell takes an unexpected turn. It becomes greener on me. It… Continue reading | 4 Comments

  Hedera Helix is a green. If Hedera Helix were a color, it’d be a deep emerald green, like the shade of ivy. Hedera Helix is… Continue reading | 4 Comments
