About Twinkle Apothecary

A woodsy, autumnal amber

At a glance...

Top notes: pine, basil 

Middle notes: jasmine, spices

Base notes: amber, oakmoss, patchouli 

This gender-less stand-alone fragrance smells like a journey through a magical forest.

First, it is resinous, green, and forrest-y with slightly musty, damp undertones

Next, a rich sweetness and warmth overtake the top notes. The heart of this scent is confident, sensual, sparkling, and somewhat powdery, in the most elegant way. It's technically floral, but only slightly. The overall effect is warm, spicy, and autumnal.  

A deep, woody, mossy, somewhat dirty, but smooth base is what lingers on your skin at the end of the journey. It's a forest floor strewn with decaying leaves, mystery, and magic.

Strength and wear time

Extremely strong and long wearing. Lasts about 8 hours on the skin. 

Note that the body oil is a much lighter dilution than the perfume and will have a lighter strength and wear time.

Instructions

Spray it onto your pulse points, in your hair, or lightly over your clothing. 

Ingredients 

fragrance blend: pine essential oil, basil essential oil, frankincense essential oil, jasmine absolute, clove essential oil, clary sage essential oil, cardamom CO2, oak moss absolute, patchouli essential oil, benzoin essential oil, labdanum absolute, vanilla CO2, violet leaf absolute, fractionated coconut oil 

alcohol spray base: organic grape spirits 

oil roll-on base: organic fractionated coconut oil 

body oil base: wildcrafted jojoba oil and organic fractionated coconut oil 

solid base: candelilla wax, organic fractionated coconut oil 

Note: I do not recommend using another scented botanical wax in my stand-alone fragrances as they will alter the scent too much!

Dreamy

This is my favorite scent so far. It makes me feel grounded and connected to the spirits of the forest. I'll be buying a full sized bottle for sure!

That's such a great way to describe the magic of this scent, thank you!

Lovely

Loved the scents i chose. Mild but also classic. Each had a distinct fragrance but never overpowering; gentle enough to put on neck or wrists to provide an aura of pleasantness. My favorite was rose cream but all were great.

An 'aura of pleasantness,' what a nice description! Love that! :) Thank you for the kind feedback, I'm so glad you've enjoyed everything!

Decadently spicy without being overwhelming! 10/10 my new favorite cold weather signature scent.

Perfection

Dark Woods is my new favorite scent. It has a lovely spicy, woodsy scent. It is such a unique scent and lasts a long time on my skin! Feels very Wintery, which is great because I am currently buried under a lot of snow up in Minnesota. Dark Woods has a cozy feel to it that makes me feel warm and at peace. I love it!

I'm so glad to know that you love Dark Woods and that it's warming up your snowy winter! This is a perfect description, thank you so much!
