Women's Fragrances

 Kali Ma- In many sources Kāli is praised as the highest reality or greatest of all Hindu deities. The figure of Kāli conveys death, destruction, and the consuming aspects of reality. As such, she is also a "forbidden thing", or even death itself. In union with Lord Shiva, she creates and destroys worlds. She is often described as young and beautiful, has a gentle smile, and makes gestures with her two right hands to dispel any fear and offer boons. This fragrance attempts to capture these two contradictory sides of Kali. Using many ingredients sourced from India this highly complex spicy oriental perfume reflects Kali Ma's nature....her divine fury and her limitless compassion. The heart of this fragrance contains jasmine, rose, Sudanese rose, tea rose, tuber rose, passion flower, nag champa, violet, honey, pomegranate, cognac, Indian saffron, and turmeric. The base is comprised of sandalwood, amyris wood, Chinese cedarwood, amber,  Indian patchouli, sweet tobacco, frankincense, myrrh, civet,  dirt, dragon's blood, Indian oud resin tincture, Indian agar wood tincture, choya nakh (Indian roasted sea shells), wormwood, wood smoke, labdunum, cardamon, cinnamon leaf, antique clove, clove bud, Indian ginger grass,  black pepper, bitter orange, star anise, vanilla.
