Blends Exclusive to The Body Perfumery

 

  Adam & Eve 

The scent of a lusciously round and temptingly sweet red apple is juxtaposed here against the masculine woody scent of sandalwood. Sniff hard enough and you might even smell a tinge of fig leaf!

   After the Rain

A fragrance that captures the scent of a garden after a heavy spring rain. Can you smell the tulips, with their heads hanging heavy with dew? The wet grass so green that it almost looks unreal? The richness of the earth? The unmistakable hint of ozone in the air? The soft, sweet diffusion from the ripe fruits hanging off the trees? Well, now you can.

  Angel Buttercream

A scrumptious and dynamite combination of angel food cake and buttercream crunch, with a rich buttery sweetness overlaying the scent of a freshly baked angel food cake. Pretty irresistible stuff! (Thanks to Kim V. for suggesting this blend.)

    Appian Way

A scent that might greet you if you were transported back in time to this famous ancient road of the Roman Empire, as you travel in style on a silken litter to your country villa, with your own private guard of horsemen. A noble and complex blend of blood orange, cypress, bergamot, fresh grass, patchouli and leather.

  Appletini 

A fresh, fizzy scent that combines the sweet crispness of a macintosh apple with the dry snap of a gin martini. A scen that is both tart and sparkly.

 Artemis in Love 

A cross between Artemis and Blackberry Love, this fragrance is still chaste with a vein of wildness, but now with an extra sweet trill of blackberries and lush vanilla from being In Love. Bottom line? Only love can make a goddess even greater.

   Autumn Glory

Everything amazing about this third season of the year distilled into a bottle. Mulled apple cider, bonfires, leaves the color of the sunset, the snap of a dry twig underfoot, and late golden afternoons carrying an edge of chilly winter to come.

   Blood Orange Vanilla

Strong, zesty blood orange oil is paired with brown sugar and rich vanilla extract, and sprinkled with a light touch of spice.

    Bois D'Ancien

Aged sandalwood, cannabis, dalmatian sage, vetiver, patchouli, pine, cinnamon and sapmoss leavened with a splash of apple cider combine to form this unique and offbeat fragrance loaded with unisex appeal.

Beguile your sense with this blend of golden amber, dark incense, tropical flowers and sweet patchouli, accented to perfection with Tahitian vanilla beans and pink grapefruit. Get in touch with your inner Byzantine empress!

A scent that will transport you to a beautiful loch in the Scottish highlands with its fresh and faintly aquatic scent redolent of the clean water, cool air and verdant flora of the land above Hadrian's Wall, otherwise known as Caledonia during the times of the Roman Empire.

 Cassis Fig & Vanilla

Blackberry leaf, ripe fig and creamy vanilla, with notes of black coconut, honey and the barest touch of sandalwood. Mmmm mmm good!

A formulation combining the ecclesiastical aromas of frankincense and myrrh, with supporting notes of old polished wood and virginal lilies.

   China Tea

This blend of green tea and osmanthus is outstandingly fresh. If you are into tea at all, you should not pass this one up.

   Chocolate Oranges

This is a tribute to one of the first pieces of chocolate I had ever tasted. When I was a toddler, my parents brought back a box of mixed Ghirardelli chocolates from San Francisco. It had a bit of everything in it, but when I reached in, the first piece I got was an orange flavored dark chocolate square. Yummy! This scent captures the taste of succulent, tangy oranges mellowed by dark creamy chocolate.

   Christmas Rose

A deep fragrance of the best english and bulgarian roses, blended with a dash of frankincense and myrrh for that special Christmas spirit. Both smoky and sweet, this scent is perfect for the holidays or any day.

A departure from the heavy oriental fragrances, here is a scent that is light and airy but with a tinge of the exotic. Sandalwood, amber, frankincense and warm spices pass through a floral veil of rose, lily and violets.

  Cloud Nine

An almost edible blend that speaks of comfort, combining notes of sugar cookies, toasted almonds, sweet oranges, tangerines and soft musk. A scent of supreme well- being and just plain feelin' good!

  Coconut Queen

An unadulterated coconut sniff in all its tropical goodness. If you are looking for a plain, rich, creamy coconut with no pineapple or other fruit notes, this is it. Very coconutty with a hint of toasted sweetness, this is the Body Perfumery's blend of the best coconuts that have entered our doors. Worthy to be crowned queen of the coconuts!

   Cranberries in the Snow

Sweet and tart red cranberries, siberian fir and a hint of mint.  This fruity scent with its unique snowy, outdoorsy charm is an utter delight.

   Creme de Cassis

Our own blend of cassis, coconut creme with a hint of apricot. The edgy sophistication of cassis adds a certain irresistible "je ne sais quoi" to the creamy and sweet coconut base.

   Dark Damsel

A multi-dimensional rose unfurls its magnificent petals against rich east indian patchouli, golden amber and lightly kissed by incense. Sweet and mysterious, this gorgeous floriental is full-bodied, voluptuous and will surely appeal to the Dark Damsel in you.

    Demeter

Named after the Greek goddess of agriculture and fertility, Demeter, this scent is both warm hearted and fresh. Scented with notes of wheat, hay, milk and sweet grass, this scent smells absolutely wholesome and will leave you feeling the same. Don't miss out on the other scents in The Body Perfumery's Goddess Series: Artemis and Demeter's daughter, Persephone.

   Eastern Honey Tea

This sweet and smokey tea blend has a base in a strong chai tea that has been infused with honey, juicy peaches, star anise, cardamom, orange peel, ginger, pepper and champaca flowers. All these notes are anchored by a mix of amber, incense and precious woods. This is an amazing and complex play on tea.

   Egyptian Geranium

A gorgeous and super feminine inter-weaving of the soft, green floral scent of geranium flowers, heady Egyptian musk and a dose of sparkling sweet summer fruits. Would go perfectly with that sexy sundress and strapless sandals for your next Sunday brunch.

   Eirene

Often represented as a youthful female, the Greek goddess of the spring and of peace, Eirene, is often represented with a cornucopia in her left arm and an olive branch in her right hand. The Body Perfumery's Eirene is a fresh and joyful composition of black currants, pink grapefruit, juicy lychee and sweet violets. This cheerful spring-like scent will bring a beatific smile to your face.

  Esmeralda's Delight

Creamy pistachio sweet custard, fresh brewed green tea and honeyed black tea, all bound together by a rich vanilla cake accord. A gourmand lover's dream.

 Falling for Grace

Falling for Grace is the beautiful child of A Moment's Grace and Blackberry Love. Here, you get the best of both worlds. The clean, soapy scent of A Moment's Grace, plus the fun, flirty sweetness of Blackberry Love. If you like one or the other, why not try both on together?

   Grove

A simple name that masks a not so simple scent. Cedarwood, vanilla, green leaves, fresh grass and a whiff of woodsmoke complete this fragrance evocative of a secluded forest grove in the early evening. Quiet and contemplative.

  Heaven

Heaven is a sweet complex elegant floral that is indescribably beautiful, with notes of tiare flower, honeysuckle, rose and white hothouse florals. A note by note dissection cannot do Heaven justice. Just try it!

  Hesperides

The Hesperides is the ancient Greek's equivalent of paradise. As legend has it, a grove of golden fruit grew in its orchard which had the power to bestow on its eater immortality. Inspired by this myth, The Body Perfumery blends here a veritable feast of the most fragrant fruits we've ever encountered. Everything from figs, dates, apples, lychee and quince, to oranges, lemons, currants and berries found their way into this fragrance. The result must be smelled to be believed!

   Ice Maiden

A sparkling fragrance with notes of mimosa, champagne, sweet oranges, gardenia, bergamot and basil. A scent inspired by Grace Kelly in the movie High Society, where she played a beautiful ice princess socialite who finds true love.

   Imperial Mandarin

An opulent composition of mandarin peel, orange blossom, amber, tonka beans and eastern spices. Step boldly into the chamber of the mandarin for your just rewards.

   Kon Tiki Custard

Thor Heyerdahl probably would much rather have eaten this while sailing to the South Pacific aboard his raft, Kon Tiki, rather than his rations. Think of The Body Perfumery's Kon Tiki Custard as a delicious crossing of a traditional french crème brulee, a cup of Indian masala chai, ripe juicy mangoes, pineapples, creamy coconut and the most concentrated Tahitian vanilla you can think of, all on a bed of precious dark teakwood. The result? An off-the-charts creamy/sweet/spicy gourmand scent with a tropical twist.

   La Vie En Rose

La Vie En Rose, the timeless love song of the sung by Edith Piaf, begins this way:
 
Des yeux qui font baisser les miens (The eyes that make mine lower)
Un rire qui se perd sur sa bouche (A laughter that gets lost on his mouth)
Voilà le portrait sans retouches (There is the portrait without retouchings)
De l'homme auquel j'appartiens (Of the man which I belong to)

As a tribute to this song, The Body Perfumery's La Vie En Rose blends the seductive scent of dark crimson roses, sweet milk, vanilla with a hint of honeyed almonds.

   Lavender Poundcake

A blend of lemon poundcake and lavender essential oil that treads the line between foody and herbal perfectly. While this is not a dupe of Philosophy's Lavender Poundcake, don't let that deter you. In our humble opinion, this is even better.

  Lime Kiwi Sorbetto

Green lime, sweet kiwi and a touch of juniper berries and eucalyptus in an icy blend that will cool you down pronto like an air conditioner turned on high. Not too sweet and very fresh.

    Madrigal

Madrigals are songs for two or three unaccompanied voices that were developed in Italy in the late 13th and early 14th centuries. Inspired by the simplicity and beauty of these compositions, The Body Perfumery has blended the trio of creamy gardenias, sweet myrrh and spicy cardamom, rounded out by a sprinkle of frankincense and peppercorn, into a fragrance that like madrigals, is a joy to the senses.

   Mandalay Plantation

A scent that will put you in mind of an old Southern plantation house, with two-hundred year old trees dripping with Spanish moss and wreathed in the narcotic haze of fragrant tuberose planted by the lady of the house. An enchanting floral anchored by moss, rosewood and mahogany.

    Mango Sage Dream

This inspired blend opens up with a strong blast of mango, followed by a clean breeze of white sage and finishes on a mild, creamy vanilla note. Fruity and sweet without being overbearing, this fragrance is perfect for a casual day out.

    Musk Melon Cantata

This is a scent that you cannot afford to miss! The scent of a ripe musk melon is like no other, a little less sweet than cantaloupe and with an intriguing musky and white tea underpinning that catapults this scent into the must try category.

   My Luscious Lychee

Combining the distinctive sweet, clear nectar of lychees with the green freshness of palm leaves and a touch of vanilla, this luscious fragrance spotlights the scent of this most delicious asian fruit.

Like a length of white satin, this scent is cool, confident and smoothly polished.

  Persephone

The multi-seeded pomegranate fruit blended with lush vanilla, the citrus zest of Valencia oranges, a hint of honey and a thin thread of woodsmoke. As beautiful as its namesake, Persephone, who so enraptured the god of the underworld that he abducted her to be his queen. Don't miss out on the other scents in The Body Perfumery's Goddess Series: Artemis and Demeter.

   Sunrise Sunset

Imagine the gloriously rich and complex orange hues of sunrises and sunsets, and you've pretty much pegged this fragrance in color terms. We begin here with the scent of a ripe, juicy sweet orange that is realistic to the point of including the scent of the peel and rind. To that, we add a dash of golden amber to bring the fragrance to a warm, woody and unforgettable finish.

   Sweet Wood

Our sandalwood is such a rich, realistic woody scent that just begs to be blended with other fantastic fragrances on our menu. So how about brown sugar? The sweet, caramel-like scent of brown sugar adds an unexpected dimension to the sandalwood without taking away any of its wonderful woody scent. If you thought our sandalwood was pretty irresistible to begin with, wait 'til you smell this suped up version!

    Tahiti

Lush as a Gauguin painting, this blend of sweet rich Tahitian vanilla, Indian sandalwood, juicy pineapples and a warm breath of tropical flowers is redolent of the charm of that South Pacific island paradise.

    The Orient Express

The first Orient Express departed from Paris in 1883 making the journey to Vienna via Munich. By the 1920s and 1930s, the Orient Express network had grown to offer stops to Belgrade, Sofia and Istanbul. It personified a bygone age of travelling in luxury, with well-appointed sleeper cars and fine dining on board. With this as inspiration, we blended Madagascar vanilla, oriental lilies, egyptian musk, neroli, sandalwood, ginger, chypre, spice and woody herbals together into a scent that is plush and hynotic like the patterns on a priceless Persian carpet. This unisex fragrance evokes the colorful excitement of travel, and combines it with a strong dose of eastern mystery and splendor.

   The Silk Road

An evocative blend of precious spices, anise, cloves, pepper, amber, musk and sandalwood: everything that used to be transported on the Silk Road, a journey between the east and the west that stretched thousands of miles through deserts and mountains to supply Europe with rarest commodities from the East. Like a trek on the Silk Road, this spicy and intense fragrance is not for the faint of heart.

  The Three Graces

Love A Moment's Grace, Baby Me and Princess Charming equally? Now you don't have to choose between them. We've blended them together for you so that you can have them with you always. Gracefully harmonious with all three fragrance's trademark of being soft and clean.

  Tunisian Musk

A blend of two of the sexiest scents on this scent menu: Egyptian Musk and Tunisian Nights. The result? A super sexy, sultry, musky fragrance that as long lasting as it is divine. It's got a slight middle- eastern feel to it due to the Egyptian Musk but the Tunisian Nights brings in the hot, lush florals for a blend that simply can't be improved upon. As sensuous as being stroked by velvet. Let this one bloom on your skin and you just might get lucky tonight.

    Valhalla

Rich golden honey and caramel infused with warm, smoky spices, lush florals and an intriguing hint of leather. You don't have to be a flaxen-haired maiden serving honeyed mead to warriors in a smoky Viking longhouse to wear this fragrance, but it can certainly help you to imagine yourself as one.

   Whisper of the Mountain

Crisp and awakening herbal edges of lavender, crushed sage and cedarwood are softened by a smidgen of warm musk and fade away on whisps of florentine iris, bulgarian rose and ambergris. A calming delight, like a walk through the forest in the early morning. Especially recommended as a refreshing body spray.

Japanese grapefruit combined with fresh milk notes, spiced up with a hint of ceylonese cinnamon on a warm, fuzzy background of baby powder, soft florals and musk.

   Xocoatl

Named "Xocoatl" after the Aztec word for chocolate, this fabulous scent is a silky rich blend of milk and dark chocolates with spicy top notes of cinnamon, cloves, cardamom and nutmeg. Not your ordinary chocolate!
