In a Station of the Metro
The apparition of these faces in the crowd;
Petals on a wet, black bough.

Nerikoh is a traditional Japanese kneaded incense, that is hand-rolled and aged and fermented underground for several months or years. It is less known in the west and often burnt during the tea ceremony because they are a refined and smoke-free form of incense. Precious woods, herbs and spices are finely ground and bound together with honey and dried fruit, then rolled into tiny balls.
Nerikoh incense is not meant to be burnt, but rather warmed in traditional Koh-Doh cup, or for more convieneinct and accessible technique - place on top of an electric incense heater or aromatherapy lamp/diffuser. You'll only a tiny pinch of each ball to scent a room for hours on end, releasing gentle yet enveloping and exotic aroma.
Hanami Nerikoh is made from Delicate woods, iris, botanical musks and precious woods kneaded together with honey and apricots produce a unique floral-almond aroma that evoke the season of sakura and ume (Japanese plum) blossoms.

Hyacinth extrait from enfleurage, vintage 2021. Grown froM bulbs in my own garden, pesticide free.
Enflirage is an antique technique for extracting delicate blossoms, using living flowers who are hand-plucked and laid to rest on a bed of solid fat. Ours is made with vegan fats only. Extrait is the flower extract that was washed with alcohol from these fats. It is a true to life rendition of hyacinths, in a very light concentration, reminiscent of eau fraiche.
May be worn as a light scent whenever you miss Hyacinths or Spring; or layered with other perfumes.
Note that this is a seasonal product and varies from year to year. Very limited supply.
Comes in a 10mL lab bottle with a spray nozzle for easy application.

Healing salve that is 100% natural & preservative free! This salve is made primarily from jojoba oil infused with healing herbs (hypericum and helicrysum) and resins (Dragon's Blood, Myrrh).
Jojoba oil is the closest in structure to the skin's natural sebum, and in fact is a liquid wax and readily absorbs into the skin. We use jojoba oil that was locally grown in the desert of Israel. The balance of the formulae is emollient rice bran oil, which helps with skin regeneration, shea butter and organic beeswax which give a lightweight, fast absorbing nourishment and hydration. Especially suitable for irritable and inflamed skin conditions (i.e.: psoriasis and eczema).
Comes in a trial size jar of 15mL (1/4oz).
Ingredients: Simmondsia chinensis (Jojoba) oil, Rice Bran (Oryza Sativa) oil, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) butter, Cira alba (Beeswax)*, Dragon's blood resin, myrrh resin, Wild Hypericum (Hypericum triquetrifolium)**, Tocopherol (from Heluanthus annuus)*, Helichrysum italicum herb & essential oil *

Love immortal encompassed in the unfolding petals of the immortal flower… A love etched deeply in a bleeding heart aching with pain. The lovers’ walk interrupted by the ghostly winds and misty sea spray. Hearts warming to the dancing flames in the fireplace, their longing for a kiss freezes on the snow like Tire sur la Neiges… The maple-like nuances of immortelle absolute are used here along with sweet orange, cinnamon, wheat and three different kinds of vanilla, creating a perfume that truly captures the aroma of cinnamon-pancakes and Tire d’Erable (“taffee on the snow”), an inseparable part of the Quebec heritage in the Maple Harvest Festivals. You’ll find it hard to resist licking this perfume, but it will prove to be a true friend for a love-injured heart.

Heart notes: Broom (Genet), Vanilla CO2, Wheat Absolute
Base notes: Immortelle, Rooibos (Red Tea), Vanilla Absolute, Benzoin Siamese, Vanilla Extract

Here it's been given some oomph with herbaceous Garrigue notes that cut through the old-fashioned ambreine accord: wild oregano oil and tincture of sharp varthemia that I foraged and prepared myself from the mountain on which my studio is built.

Incense cones, hand-rolled in the traditional Asian style, made from botanicals that were finely ground on location and artfully blended. No saltpetre or charcoal used in these cones. Cones are generally faster burning than a thick joss stick (range of burning time may be from 7-15min, and produce more smoke. They are more convenient to burn while traveling and outdoors, and they stand on their own base, and therefore don't really require special equipment or vessels.
Burning instruction: Prepare a heat-proof vessel, on a sturdy surface away from flammables and out of reach of children and animals. To prevent scorch marks, it is recommended that you layer some sand, earth or ash on the vessel. Place the cone and light the tip of it, and allow the flame to extinguish. Because these are handmade cones, each has a different burning times.
Selection of fragrance changes, depending on mood and season. Incense cones come in a box containing about a dozen cones. Each box contains a dozen cones.
