Raer 09: Angelica Root

 

This perfume is an ode to rebirth: an ethereal fiery haze of Belgian Angelica Root, ancient Swiss Stone Pine Needle, grounding French Oak Moss, with an irresistible Gin & Tonic opening of wild-foraged Juniper Berries and Calabrian Lemon Peel. Warmth comes from Pimento Leaf and resinous Wild Labdanum; Myrrh Resin and musk from rare Ambrette Seeds give earthy depth to the composition. A perfume that speaks of possibility and renewal.

This scent was made just as Corona lockdown (hence the Gin and Tonic topnote) and embodies the opportunity to constantly reconsider and refashion ourselves and our lives after awakening from a period of introspection.
