Witch Fire: Our handmade vanilla bean smoke enfleurage is deepened with precious vanilla absolutes from Uganda and Mexico, then smoldered with a drop of birch tar.
A rich and smoky gourmand.
Perfumer's Note: We haven't seen anyone do a vanilla bean smoke enfleurage before, so we may possibly have invented this! We also used natural vanilla absolutes, materials which can be somewhat extravagant for indie perfume, but they are more than worth their cost. Created with organic grape alcohol.
Parfums are offered in 5 ml amber glass apothecary bottles and 1.25 ml amber glass sample vials. EDPs are offered in 10 ml and 30 ml glass spray bottles.
Indie, handmade, vegan, cruelty free.
Safety Note: All of our perfumes are free of phthalates, parabens, sulfates, endocrine disruptors, preservatives, and silicones.
This one smells like vanilla extract to me. I definitely get the hit of vanilla, but it isn't the over-the-top cupcake frosting vanilla that you can get from a lot of vanilla perfumes (and what made me think I hated vanilla). Don't get me wrong, this perfume does have a sweetness to it. I didn't really get the smoke note at first, but there is a nice woody undertone in it that helps it from going too sweet. It does come out a bit later on though.
Love this scent. In the bottle, every strong vanilla extract vibe. When applied, the vanilla tones down and becomes smoky. As the scent wanes it becomes warm, smoky, and the vanilla scent becomes deeper and warm.
This was not an immediate “love” for me, it’s complex and unexpected. But those are the qualities the caused it to grow on me, it’s a lovely fragrance. It’s June at the time of my purchase, but this fragrance is much more suited to cooler weather. I’m looking forward to wearing it more often this autumn.
At first, I thought the smokiness was a bit too strong but after applying it to my pulse points I became obsessed! Witch Fire is calming and invigorating at the same time.
Equal parts delicious and disturbing. The smokiness of the vanilla bean smoke enfleurage and birch tar is so unique and unsettling against the gorgeous golden vanillas. It wears beautifully for hours, and as the smokier aspects of the scent fade, one is left with a beautiful, resplendent skin scent of the softest vanilla and warm wood. I love this. My cat finds this perfume particularly intriguing as well!
