Follow along on my fragrant chronicles
Ahhh Sugar Sugar is an indie body care vendor that's hovered on the outer rings of my radar for some time.

Sea Witch Botanicals are purveyors of natural home fragrance, cosmetics and bodycare. I discovered this shop when a potter I follow, Kelsey Star Stuff, raved about the incense and shared a follower discount code on her instagram.

Spurred on by the magic-tinged scented oils showcased by artisan perfume treasure-hunting blogger friends, I've dipped my first toes into the indie perfume world. The Winter release by Element Botanicals' wildcrafted offering, Earth. I'm in tune with the idea of a seasonal perfume change for one that embodies the characteristics of each season. This is...

A couple of weeks ago, I was fortunate enough to win a giveaway by the purveyors of Euphoria Soap Works. Not only was my prize delightfully presented in autumn gold and plaid ribbon, I was given a scent choice for the winnings. It was a tough decision for this indecisive Gemini, but Vanilla Sandalwood is one... Continue Reading →
