Natural perfumes
I have been making natural perfumes to explore our connection with the subtle fields of perception since 2013.
Each one is a unique work of art, an expression of botanical alchemy inspired by aesthetics, place, and ritual — handcrafted in small batches with exceptional natural ingredients.

floral woody, tuberose, neroli, sandalwood
Pale wings shimmer in the moonlight as white blossoms unfurl in the velvet dark. Soft and luminous, Luna Moth is a perfume of quiet magic — creamy woods and white florals twined together like silk and starlight, warm skin and cool night air.
Top Notes: bergamot, bitter orange, neroli
Middle Notes: tuberose, rose, night blooming jasmine
Base Notes: sandalwood, cedar, guaiacwood
This is only a selection of the key notes. The actual perfume contains many more distinct essences.
A powdery white floral with a warm, resinous heart, Luna Moth is soft and enveloping — an invitation to slow down, soften, and dissolve into the sacred mystery of the night.
The luna moth lives her winged life entirely by moonlight, emerging from her cocoon transformed and radiant. She does not eat. She does not strive. She simply is — luminous, purposeful, and free. Luna Moth perfume is an ode to that kind of grace: the transformation that comes not through force, but through surrender.
Magical Highlights:
Tuberose and Night Jasmine — the quintessential flowers of the night, their intoxicating and otherworldly scents fill the starlight air
Sandalwood and benzoin — ground and soften, wrapping the body in warmth like candlelight, attuning the spirit to meditation and inner stillness
Neroli — distilled from the blossoms of the bitter orange tree, a flower of purity, deep calm, and the sacred feminine
Cedar and vetiver — roots of the forest, connecting us to the earth even as we journey into dreamtime

Retiring Perfume – Limited Availability
As with all things wild and botanical, change is part of the journey. This perfume is one of those entering retirement.
Perfumes may be retired if I’ve fallen out of love with the blend or because rare ingredients are no longer available or sustainable to source. A few scents may be reformulated in the future, while others will fade into memory. Once these perfumes are sold out, they may not return.
If this perfume holds a special place in your heart and you'd love to see a reimagined version, feel free to reach out or join the waitlist to cast your vote for a revival.
