Description

Olympic Orchids Woodcut Extrait de Parfum was the winner of the 2015 Art and Olfaction Awards in the artisan category.

Olympic Orchids Woodcut Extrait de Parfum is an amber woody fragrance that captures the intoxicating aroma of a log yard where spicy sawdust and the hot whir of sawmill machinery infuse the air – and trees are transformed into wood. Woodcut links our contemporary, technology-based society to raw nature. Strong lines and delicate tracery combine to tell an archetypal tale of man’s rape of the earth. Woodcut conjures up dark images of ancient trees inhabited by spirits from a time when the earth was new. Smell the flowing sap of felled trees and the burnt sugar of the trees’ blood when it is heated by the saws of lumbermen and builders!

Ellen Covey of Olympic Orchids was inspired to make this fragrance when she passed by a building site where old trees had been newly cut for a development and lumber was being sawed for a fence. The scent of cut wood was intoxicatingly beautiful and primitive, like a fleeting glimpse of the invisible essence of life spilled carelessly on the ground and burned as an offering to human greed.

This honest and hearty scent is perfect for macho types and deep thinkers alike. Wear if you are fascinated by the complex interrelations between humanity and nature in our industrial world, or simply if you enjoy the comforting aroma of cut wood in the air!

Notes: fractional distillations of pine and cedar, oakwood absolute, tolu balsam, olibanum, caramel, burnt sugar, vanilla
