Nocturne Alchemy / VApothecary April 2016 Decant Circle
~~~~~ CLOSED ~~~~~
Surprise! Since there is no April update for NAVA but I’ve seen some OP chatter, not only am I offering a second chance at the March update but I’m offering Osirian Purnima decants! That’s right, for the next 6 days there will be open ordering on decants for all the Osirian Purnima scents.
And don’t forget, there is a price increase on April 30th of everything NAVA. So join the NA / VA April 2016 Decant Circle & add your favorite bottles before the price goes up.
Get your decant circle notifications on Facebook! Join my group Nocturne Alchemy & VApothecary circles.
Osirian Purnima Collection ~
All perfume oils in the Osirian Purnima Collection start with the Osirian Purnima blend: Beginning with the tuned recipe of Bastet’s Zamsara: An exotic Blue Incense blended into the dark sensuality of aged Kashmir in Mahogany wood and a drop of Santalum Black, Black Frankincense, Black Hessonite, Bastet's Amber and aged Eternal Ankh Vanilla Absolute.

Carteri, B. Thurifera and B. Serrata. Solid Myrrh wood is then stirred in and taken out, leaving a trace element of sweet wood within the blend. Intoxicating blend of Labdanum Extract, Benzoin Syrup and Oakmoss stir in the incense ephemeral element to the blend. Five Sandalwood perfume oils swirl throughout the Osirian.
