An Elegy in Ash and Root
They say the forest died in silence.
Not from flame, nor flood, nor axe — but from forgetting. The paths twisted themselves shut, the wind stopped carrying birdsong, and the trees, once proud and reaching, curled inward as if in mourning. No one returned to the chapel at its heart, not since the last of the stewards vanished into the underbrush, candle still lit in her hand.
The Withering, they called it. A slow, sacred decay.
But not all things within that grove surrendered. Beneath the rotting leaves, under twisted birch and cedar blackened by time, something endured. A scent — faint as breath on glass. It curled from the moss like a ghost, bitter with sage, deep with root, sharp as cracked bark in winter. No bloom remained, yet it carried the memory of one.
In the village beyond the ridge, the elders warned: if you find the scent of ash and earth, do not follow it. It is not a trail — it is a pull.
But one autumn, on a morning rimmed with frost, a stranger came through the wood. They wore no perfume, yet the air around them moved with the smell of withered things — not unpleasant, but unsettling, like old velvet, like pages burned before reading.
They stopped where the forest began, eyes closed, breathing deep.
The veil lifted.
And the trees bowed.
The Withering is not merely a scent. It is a ritual held in the hush of decline — the quiet beauty of surrender. The dry kiss of sage flower. The smoke of charred cedar. The pulse of patchouli rising from ruined ground. A fragrance not of life, but of the memory it leaves behind.

Directions:
For the perfume oil: apply to wrists and other pulse points. As your body heat warms up the oil, the scent will release. Oil based fragrances are heavier than sprays and wear closer to your body. Reapply as often as needed. We use light dry oils so that the oil base absorbs more quickly into your skin, leaving no oily or sticky residue.
Ingredients in oils: organic jojoba oils, phthalate free fragrance and essential oils, and organic vitamin E oil. May contain isopropyl myristate.
Warning: Do not ingest! Keep away from eyes, nose, and mouth. Keep away from children and pets. Do not apply oils to fabrics, may stain.
All skin types and body types are different, please test on a small area of skin prior to normal use. If reaction occurs, immediately discontinue use. If you are worried about allergies, please contact us for a complete list of ingredients/scents used in a particular product.
