Deep, luscious green and berry scents that evoke images of woodland witchcraft and the raw power of nature: blackberry, sage, green tea, wild berries and dark musk.
A disconcerting scent, heavy and oppressive, through which no light, no matter, and no spirit can escape. Black opium, labdanum, opoponax, black orchid, and benzoin.
One can even set up quite ridiculous cases. A cat is penned up in a steel chamber, along with the following diabolical device (which must be secured against direct interference by the cat): in a Geiger counter there is a tiny bit of radioactive substance, so small that perhaps in the course of one hour one of the atoms decays, but also, with equal probability, perhaps none; if it happens, the counter tube discharges and through a relay releases a hammer which shatters a small flask of hydrocyanic acid. If one has left this entire system to itself for an hour, one would say that the cat still lives if meanwhile no atom has decayed. The first atomic decay would have poisoned it. The Psi function for the entire system would express this by having in it the living and the dead cat (pardon the expression) mixed or smeared out in equal parts. It is typical of these cases that an indeterminacy originally restricted to the atomic domain becomes transformed into macroscopic indeterminacy, which can then be resolved by direct observation. That prevents us from so naively accepting as valid a “blurred model” for representing reality. In itself it would not embody anything unclear or contradictory. There is a difference between a shaky or out-of-focus photograph and a snapshot of clouds and fog banks.
A paradoxical scent experiment! – tangerine, sugared lime, pink grapefruit, oakmoss, lavender, zdravetz, and chocolate peppermint.
No cats were mistreated during the formulation of this paradox, or in the process of creating this perfume.
A shot of pure, self-indulgent euphoria! A scent that is very, very wicked in its own way: the serotonin-slathered scent of pure milk chocolate.

Very herbal pronounced for me with minimal wood, it’s a good scent for when I can’t get outdoors but I want to smell what I’m missing.

this smelled very herbal when i first put it on but it dried down to a fresher scent with hints of wood and herbs, etc. I found that it was very light on me after it dried down, It’s pleasant and interesting without being overwhelming
Danielle –
smells wonderfully like fresh cut Birch tree ( the species you make birch beer from)

Wow, weird and super interesting! It’s very herby and it kind of reminds me of Tiger Balm, but not hot. All cold. I really like this.

Purchased this at Dragoncon because I was looking for an oil similar to a perfume I had tried but decided not to buy elsewhere. A delicious woodsy smell with a sharp mint edge, fades to a lovely soft moss scent. Reminds me of a forest after rainfall.

I thought this was awful at first. On aplication this was pure mouthwash on me – yuck! BUT, once it had time to dry down it became very interesting – flowers and woods with lots of cedar. Very pleasant and fresh.

Ah I love the story of Yggdrasil! It has such great imagery. In the bottle this was beautiful, woody and herbal with a hint of sweetness(which I believe was the spearemint-like scent of the birch) Wet on my skin it kept changing one moment I could smell birch, the next it was earthy herbals and woods. In the end when it was dry though all I could smell was cedar. Which is a nice enough smell but I literally smelled like a cedar trunk. Boo for body chemistry *sigh* otherwise this would have been perfect.
